Public bug reported: On my Sony VAIO VGN-A617S audio works through the laptop speakers so also does the microphone and the headphone jacks. But when I connect the docking station Sony VGP-PRAV2 A/V docking station which has a digital amplifier, audio is muted on the laptop speakers but nothing comes out of the external speakers (VGP SP2) connected to the docking station. The USB slots and the battery charger on the docking station works well though.
Using the Realtek HD-Audio drivers for WinXP these speakers/docking- station is working fine. I have been trying hard with the hda-verb and hda-analyzer utility and also with all the model-names that could be added into alsa-base.conf as 'options snd-hda-intel model=xxx' for ALC260, but to no avail. This thread I have opened - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10601237 - adds some more details to this. Thank you in advance.
