@James, thanks for your comment, the kernel of 18.04.1 doesn't include my patches yet, you can have a try https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel- ppa/mainline/v4.20/, to see if you still can experience popping from L-Channel and if you can hear noise from headphone (#12).

After investigating, we found those Lenovo laptop mdoels all have the codec of alc285, and we can reproduce the noise problem too. [Fix] Don't use the DAC of headphone, let headphone share the DAC with speaker, the noise disappears. [Test Case] After applying this patch, we tested on Lenovo P52, P72, X1 carbon and X1 Yoda2, no noise anymore [Regression Potential] Low. This patch only apply to several lenovo machines, and after applying this patch, both speaker and headphone still work very well.
