Because intel and others @[EMAIL PROTECTED] with the AC97 standard. The snd-intel8x0 driver has a quirks option that allows for rearanging that stupidity back to normal. parm: ac97_quirk:AC'97 workaround for strange hardware. (array of charp) You might have to look at pci/ac97/ac97_codec.c for a list of valid quirk options. For a realtek ALC chip the option ac97_quirk=alc_jack might be useful (it appears to enable the auto jack select feature of those chips). There are also quirks for swapping master/headphone volume controls which seems to be needed on some systems. AC97 is a real mess.
