Summary:                    Issue 001595 does not fix Audigy 4
Description: 
I have an Audigy 4 with the same device/subsystem as khampf from issue
1595.  I applied his patch, but it does NOT work unless I change
.ca0102_chip = 1 to .ca0108_chip = 1.

I did experience the same confusion where loading one driver with ca0108
will make any subsequent driver work (e.g., ca0102) until the next reboot.

Please note that some settings on the sound card can survive a warm
reboot.
When testing, please cold reboot. I.e. Power off the PC.
So, happily do modprobe/rmmod to test the patches, but then do a final
cold reboot to double check it BEFORE posting anything more to this bug
report.

By default, without any patches, the following will be applied:
        {.vendor = 0x1102, .device = 0x0008,
         .driver = "Audigy2", .name = "Audigy 2 Value [Unknown]", 
         .id = "Audigy2",
         .emu10k2_chip = 1,
         .ca0108_chip = 1,
         .ac97_chip = 1} ,

So, if for "fix" is exactly the same as that, it is not a fix at all. :-)

If you do find another options that works reliably after a cold reboot,
please post the entire record, not just one line of it.

Do not try the options:
         .ca_cardbus_chip = 1,
         .spi_dac = 1,
Something that might be worth trying could be adding:
         .spk71 = 1,

Also, if one does post a new record for the card, please also include the
output of:
cat /proc/asound/version
cat /proc/asound/cards

Thank you
