Hello, a this moment with a 3.7.10 kernel and debian wheezy I only have
control of the Master volume with the generic parser (wm8850). Only one
output can be controlled. No inputs are detected. What do you mean with
appropriate bios setup? Do you know if there is more compatibility in higher
kernels?

Thank you.
