ALC889A (Gigabyte EX58-UD5) pin support

ALC889A (Gigabyte EX58-UD5) pin support

I've got a pretty new Gigabyte board, using snd-hda-intel and an ALC889A
chip. Whilst the chip seems to be detected fine, I have no functional
audio out - no sound on any of the ports.

dmesg shows that ALSA has no idea about the specific model:
HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 22 (level, low) -> IRQ 22
hda_codec: Unknown model for ALC883, trying auto-probe from BIOS...

If I'm reading the source correctly, the default pin layout is
3stack-digout. I tried 6stack-digout, but it didn't help.

Linked is output from the diagnostic script:
http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=3938bc16481f549203e373e303c4b1c1dfb303dd

I'm happy enough to try things out in an effort to get the onboard sound
to behave

Scratch that - it seems to have decided to start working after I messed
with some of the switches. Oddly, it's identical to one time when it was
merely popping and clicking (plugging something into the front-panel
audio helped, but the fix seems to hold between cold-boots)

Have you tried ALSA snapshots? They might work better i.e. more permanent.

Nice board, BTW.
