Summary:                    Unknown model for ALC880 again, First International
Computer p4m-915gd1 no sound
Description: 
I'm unable to get any sound on my FIC p4m-915gd1 motherboard's built-in
sound. There are no error messages and I can play content all I want, I
just don't get any sound.

The manufacturer's page lists the hardware as "Intel HDA, Azalia 8
Channel, Realtek ALC880":
http://www.fic.com.tw/product/motherboard/intel/p4m-915gd1.aspx

I've found other, similar reports here in the bug tracker (#1460, #1563,
#1589), including reports that this problem was resolved as of 1.0.11rc1.

Accordingly, I tried compiling alsa from cvs sources as of today, but this
made no difference. I still have no sound.

Sorry, I explained that very badly. :-(

One of the problems I had was indeed the same as reported before (in bug
#1563).

However, I had another problem also: That my soundcard wasn't recognized
by the driver since FIC had used their own PCI IDs to identify it. These
PCI IDs need to be added to patch_realtek.c in CVS so owners of FIC
motherboards won't have to manually patch and compile alsa-drivers in the
future.

I've emailed the patch against current CVS directly to tiwai.

Thanks, the patch was applied to CVS.
