[alsa-devel] about the dual codecs on Lenovo p520

[Hui Wang]

Hello Takashi,

On the Lenovo P520, there are two analog codecs, the codec#0 is alc662, 
and  lineout, linein and mic-in are on the rear panel and are connected 
to codec#0, the codec#1 is alc235, it connects an internal speaker, 
front-panel headset jack (headphone+mic).

After booting up, only the lineout on codec#0 works,  if i manually 
change value for some amixer controls (pulseaudio can't handle new 
controls like "Front-Panel"), the linein and mic-in on codec#0 also can 
work.   But all ports on codec#1 can't work no matter how I change the 
value of the amixer controls.


And you mentioned UCM profile, where can i find it and use it?

the alsa-info.txt for this machine is at here：

Thanks,

Hui.
