@David Henningsson Hi, thanks for your effort,
I've tried that patch and with a little correction it works as expected - no more click noise. It's necessary to move the line .reboot_notify = conexant_reboot_notify, from static const struct hda_codec_ops conexant_patch_ops = { to static const struct hda_codec_ops cx_auto_patch_ops = { when rebooting "auto model detection". One thing about snd_hda_codec_set_power_to_all(codec, codec->afg, AC_PWRST_D3, false); I think it's not necessary to turning every single pin to D3, just pin for the Speaker, like this snd_hda_codec_write(codec, 0x10, 0, AC_VERB_SET_POWER_STATE, AC_PWRST_D3); or snd_hda_codec_write(codec, codec->start_nid, 0, AC_VERB_SET_POWER_STATE, AC_PWRST_D3); but it's up to you because it works :) The rest regressions when using "auto model detection": 1) There is a wrong AC_VERB_SET_CONNECT_SEL setting. Speaker 0x10 and Headphones 0x11 (and maybe dock station 0x12) are connected to Audio Output 0x19 instead of Audio Mixer 0x17. Look at post #8. 2) I don't know how to explain it but there is a wrong PCM level. Sound output is muted in the "0% <-> unamplified" part of the volume slider and is working in the "unamplified <-> 100% ->" part only and it's annoying; according to the code from patch_conexant.c (old model setting) switch (codec->subsystem_id >> 16) { case 0x103c: case 0x1631: case 0x1734: case 0x17aa: /* HP, Packard Bell, Fujitsu-Siemens & Lenovo laptops have * really bad sound over 0dB on NID 0x17. Fix max PCM level to * 0 dB (originally it has 0x2b steps with 0dB offset 0x14) */ snd_hda_override_amp_caps(codec, 0x17, HDA_INPUT, (0x14 << AC_AMPCAP_OFFSET_SHIFT) | (0x14 << AC_AMPCAP_NUM_STEPS_SHIFT) | (0x05 << AC_AMPCAP_STEP_SIZE_SHIFT) | (1 << AC_AMPCAP_MUTE_SHIFT)); break; } the driver doesn't allow amplified part because sound is distorted over 0dB of the PCM level so there is no need amplified part of the volume slider. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/886975 Title: [Thinkpad R61i/T61] Lenovo sound chip Conexant CX20549 Venice doesn't work correctly.
