How do I find the correct hint if I can't reload the sound module in
the new kernel environment and explore 'dmesg', '/dev/sndstat' and the
physical headphones with the new hint without a reboot?

Stick something in a file (/boot/device.hints or /boot/loader.conf),
reboot and see if it works... if it doesn't put a different
combination of 'cad', 'nid' and 'seq' and reboot?... And again and
again, till it works?..

Improved HDA driver in HEAD allows to change CODEC configuration via sysctls on fly without unloading. I am going to merge it to 9/8-STABLE in few weeks. If somebody wants to write nice GUI for it -- welcome! ;)
