Re: Fwd: [PATCH] sound working on the macbook pro

a "diff" of the trace without and with the fix-up is:

1) snd_hda_parse_pin_def_config moves the speaker to the line_out
2) stac92xx_add_dyn_out_pins adds two line_outs
3) stac92xx_auto_create_multi_out_ctls creates the controls "Front",
"Surround", Center, LFE
4) stac92xx_auto_create_hp_ctls doesn't run add_spec_dacs or
create_controls for the speaker. It then creates a control name Master
instead of Headphone.

Do you consider changing this a long term goal? I agree that we should
first try to get the sound working on the mac book, but the current
implementation is strange IMHO.
