Hey Elimar,
I found a document on the web [1] that said "I also noted on the alsa
web site that sometimes an ALC889A can be misidentified as an ALC885
when in fact it is closer to an ALC888/ALC883."
So, using that, I've tried some of the models listed for the
ALC883/888 with limited success. Right now, in
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base, I have the following appended:
options snd-hda-intel enable=1 model=3stack-6ch-dig index=0 position_fix=1
I've had some limited success using that line and a combination of:
rmmod snd-hda-intel
modprobe -v snd-hda-intel
When I hit the right combination, I can hear a small 'click' in the
speakers. Then I know it will work.
Although, it has not yet worked after a reboot. I know it sounds
silly, but it only seems to work after waiting
a while after a reboot. Maybe 30 minutes or so. Like it is waiting for
something to time out, or perhaps it's a race
condition. I don't know. Just trying explain what I've tried and under
what conditions it works.
Right now, the sound is working fine. Again, using the above instructions.
I'll hang in there until the weekend when you have something to test
with. It's awfully frustrating to have a machine
that you know will produce sound, but just won't produce it using the
64-bit code.
Thanks,
Mike
