Summary: alc655: low volume
Description:
I have ATI IXP400 sound in my notebook. codec is realtek's alc655. The
problem is I couldn't hear anything from internal speaker. When I plug
earphones in I hear very-very low music signal, so driver actually works
but. By the way under xp with realtek's drivers thats all right.. Is there
a way to see dump of ac97's registers under xp? May be XP driver uses some
proprietary features of alc655?

yeah... just before restoring alsa mixer levels I write this values to
acl655...and it works I don't know why...These values are acl655 registers
before audio modules is completly loaded..."temporarily solution" because
it is not right way to make things work...

else one: modem(sb400) doesn't work, module loads ok, slmodem ok...but
when I run minicom and ttry to call system hangs(

Well, it seems this bug is still unfixed.
I use alsa-driver 1.0.10 and I only get this very silent sound from
headphone out.
Temporary solution didn`t help me either, when I pasted it into bash
script and executed, regs file values became all ffff`s.
Same soundcard, ATI IXP 400, using arch linux 0.7.1 pre1, all modules
loaded, alsa is working no-problemo.
