Well, your question is rather HD-audio codec specific than ALSA.
CS420x has a 1:1 static connection between DAC and pin, according to the
codec verbs. The pin 0x09 corresponds to the DAC 0x02, and this appears
to be a HP output. It's just labeled so, and thus it's a guess.
You can change the pin configs in mbp55_pincfgs[] just to point one
pin. In the case above, 0x012b4030 is set to 0x09 (which represents
a HP output) and others are 0x400000f0 (which represents empty).
Similarly, you can assign the value to another pin and check which I/O
actually works...
And, this might be together with GPIO setup. So, a lot of
trial-and-error procedure.
