It’s as if something has been left floating and the amplification for the internal speakers has not been shut off. I’m making the assumption that this is related to the 0xffbc0100 you mention.

Something like:
  hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_MASK 0x01
  hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_DIR 0x01
  hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_DATA 0x01

Above will enable the GPIO pin #0 to the write direction, and set high.
It's a bit mask, so for pass 0x02 for pin#1, 0x04 for pin#2, etc.
Try to fiddle with the data high/low and dir high/low.
Most likely the first bit controls some external amp like the
speaker.

And the device /dev/snd/hwC0D0 depends on the system.  hwC0D0 is for
the card 0 device 0.

Once when we figure out the GPIO pin role, we can hook the pin up/down
along with the speaker mixer mute state.
