yeah, the lspci output is on the query list. > It's absolutely irrelevant which AC97 > chip is used. really? i believe this happens only on certain ac97 chips. for example, ALC202 spec says that ALC202A uses the headphone volume as the "true line out" volume. so, apparently, some ac97 chips "recommend" this behavior. let's see... > Vendor might wire codec in any way. Also, some codecs may > swap line-out / headphone out via registers. this is a different case, imo. the problem is that we have no chance to detect/switch them, either manually or automatically. a general solution would be to add an ac97 control switch to swap them. then the accssed registers are exchanged internally according to this control. but it isn't bad to know which chips and which machines have this problem, so that we can add quirks to turn on this switch automatically.
