Public bug reported: Tried to configure 5.1 surround on my Ubuntu system and I was unsuccessful after reading about 20 articles and 10 videos. I reached out to the #alsa channel and was fortunate enough to run across a very Knowledgeable user by the Debianuser. After several attempts in changing files the system sounds clear and all audio test work perfectly. I couldn't load the hda jack reset app on my system not sure if it had to do with my release 12.04.5 but we ended up inputting the data manually. \
Here are some lines of data we used plus some conversation notes: [codec] 0x14f150a1 0x10280581 2 [pincfg] 0x1b 0x01014011 0x1c 0x01014010 0x1d 0x01014012 [hint] multi_io = yes Well, it basically works. Now there're two more things we can do. <Marine1> Thank you if your ever here in Sunny Florida i owe you dinner, drinks? <debianuser> First - multi_io on its own did not worked, but pincfg worked. We can try to combine those two like this: http://pastebin.com/aj29uStC It won't make things better, may do nothing or add one more option. So it's up to you if you want to test that or not. <Marine1> yes I’m game let me know You can do that from command-line: echo -e '[codec]\n0x14f150a1 0x10280581 2\n\n[hint]\nmulti_io = yes' | sudo tee /lib/firmware/my-multi-io.fw Than you..
