This patch fixes the problem switching between built in and jack
speaker/mic on my Lenovo G560.

What it doesn't solve is the internal microphone's inability to pick
anything up.

I have the 'crack of the day' alsa installed by following this:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/InstallingLinuxAlsaDriverModules

alex@foo:~$ uname -a
Linux foo 2.6.35-28-generic #49-Ubuntu SMP Tue Mar 1 14:39:03 UTC 2011 x86_64 
GNU/Linux

alex@foo:~$ grep asus /var/log/messages
Apr  5 21:06:15 foo kernel: [   16.867976] ALSA hda_codec.c:3727: hda_codec: 
model 'asus' is selected for config 17aa:38af (Lenovo G560)

In order for the internal microphone to be *any* use at all I need to
run hda analyzer and bump up the gain?.

The diff from hda analyzer is:

Without this the internal microphone is completely useless - it looks
from this thread like I'm not alone with this problem either. Any chance
it could be patched?
