For a desktop with/without internal speaker, three audio jacks at rear
panel

Green lineout jack , blue and pink jacks should have higher priority to
allocate DAC (audio output node 0x02, 0x03 and 0x04) than the headphone and
the internal speaker to support surround 5.1

This mean that in function parse_output_paths() to prevent the assignment
of dac speaker

-      bool fill_hardwired = true, fill_mio_first = true;
+       bool fill_hardwired = false, fill_mio_first = true;

Or use the existence of internal Mic to determine the value of
fill_hardwired
