amixer output under 3.11.7

Alsa Line in and Mic on HDA + AD1986A failed under 3.12.0 onwards

------------------------------------

Hardware Asus M2NPV-VM with HDA + AD1986A with 3 rear panel jacks
- "Line In", "Line out", "Mic" (+headphone, mic on front).

For all versions I am using "options snd-hda-intel model=3stack"

First noticed under Slackware-14.0 when I changed from kernel 3.11.7
to kernel 3.12.0.

------------------------------------

Under Slackware-14.1 but with kernel 3.12.1 + two patches from bug
id 64971 had these results :-

no "line in"
no "mic"
The line in, mic are there but no mute or gain control and no signal.
It actually physically short "line in" and "mic" [the device driving
the input recovers when the jack is pulled out].

no "cd"
The "cd" is there but no mute or gain control and nothing heard playback,
but can capture from "cd" OK.

Can work around the CD with "mplayer cdda://", but have no work around for
"line in" and "mic".

Pcm, Beep Ok

Initially no headphone output .... until I enabled "loopback mix" then ok.

Initially no "Stereo Mix" ... To get "Stereo mixer" I did :-

hw_device=/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:10.1/sound/card0/hwC0D0
echo "add_stereo_mix_input=true" > ${hw_device}/hints
echo "1"                         > ${hw_device}/reconfig

And then can capture PCM (and even "beep") ok.

------------------------------

Re-tested under Slackware-14.1 but with kernel 3.13-rc2 :-

CD input now works ok.

Pcm, Beep Ok

Again no headphone output until "loopback mix" is enabled - then OK

Again need to do the "add_stereo_mix_input" workaround.

The line in, mic are there and are now complete with mute and gain controls.
But again there is a physical short on "line in" and "mic" - so these
inputs are still unusable.

Comment 2 Takashi Iwai 2013-12-05 15:12:13 UTC
The fact that you had to use the model option was already a problem.  This should have been reported earlier.

In anyway, please give alsa-info.sh outputs on both 3.11 and 3.12 kernels.

The lack of analog loopback mixer elements was already fixed in the upstream 3.13-rc2.  The patch will be backported to the upcoming 3.12.y stable kernel, too.  So, if your interest is about that, try 3.13-rc2.

Comment 8 William 2013-12-05 19:27:08 UTC
Yes 3.13-rc2 is an improvement on 3.12.2 but not fully fixed.

Although the mixer controls look acceptable under 3.13-rc2
the "Line in" and "Mic" inputs are still shorted. For example
when I plug the output of a radio into the "line in", the 
radio itself goes silent.

Also still need to do the add_stereo_mix_input hint thing to
get the mixer loopback capture control.This features simply
worked prior to 3.12.0.
Comment 9 Takashi Iwai 2013-12-05 20:17:00 UTC
The loopback mixer can be turned on/off now via "Loopback Mixing" mixer switch.
Maybe this is still off on your machine.

This is set OFF as default, and it might be confusing for AD codec users.  I'm going to make it ON as default for AD codecs later.

The stereo-mix feature is just a matter to align with other codec drivers.
Now AD codecs are using the very same code base.
Comment 10 William 2013-12-06 21:52:34 UTC
Just checked through the "line in" and "mic" a bit more.
When I said "inputs are shorted" I should say :- 

  The "Rear panel line in" and "Rear panel mic" inputs are very low impedance
  when the PC is first powered up before Linux has booted. In this state any
  external device (eg radio) connected to them may itself be very muted.

  When an "older" kernel up to and including 3.11.9 is booted these two inputs
  appear go to a higher impedance and, any device connected to them then
  operates normally, and these inputs (with suitable mixer settings) can be,
  heard through the rear panel line-out and/or front panel headphone sockets,
  and/or captured.

  When kernel 3.12.x or 3.13-rc2 is booted these two inputs remain in the
  very low impedance state and no playback/capture of them is possible.
  As these two are [in principle] multipurpose jacks I also checked that
  there is no detectable audio output or DC bias from them. (I'm not
  interested in the 5.1 - though others may be - 2 channel stereo is
  enough for me).

  The front panel mic input works ok under all the kernels mentioned.

  [Just as an aside - the AD1986A's rear panel "line out" socket is also
  designed to drive headphones if required, and I can confirm this works ok].

  The only BIOS sound settings are an HDA enable/disable and MIDI port,IRQ
  settings.
Comment 11 Takashi Iwai 2013-12-07 09:13:31 UTC
OK, understood.  The mixer controls for VREF setups appear when add_jack_modes=1 hint is given.  Maybe I can enable this back automatically for AD codecs when the machine is no standard laptop style.

The multi-channel setup doesn't always work on AD1986A depending on the pin assignment because of half-fixed wiring of AD1986A codec.  I'm going to implement a workaround later.
Comment 12 William 2013-12-07 20:49:10 UTC
First something I failed to notice yesterday. When booted up in 3.12.x or
3.13-rc2 with just the defaults. Plug in a front panel mic, and mic controls
work as expected ..but... if "Line in" gain is changed then it too starts to
affect the microphone gain and likewise from then on "Line in" mute affects
the microphone. ie effective_mic_gain = boost + mic_gain + line_in_gain
                                        + front_gain + master_gain

On repeating with 3.13-rc3 I got much the same result - except that I had to
enable "Loopback Mixing" in order to hear anything.

          -------

I tried your suggested hint and then a few other likely looking ones under
3.13-rc2. The only one which improved the rear panel "line in" and "mic"
problem was "inv_jack_detect=1" which removed the low impedance condition
from the rear panel "line in", "mic" sockets. However I could still not get
any playback/capture from "line in" or rear "mic".

On repeating with 3.13-rc3 "inv_jack_detect=1" had no apparent effect.
Comment 13 Takashi Iwai 2013-12-10 16:48:52 UTC
Could you try two patches below on top of 3.13-rc3?  The "Loopback Mixing" should disappear now and it's always used.

The requirement of inv_jack_detect is still a question.  At least, normal AD1986A implementation shouldn't need it.  Maybe there is some broken revision (e.g. Lenovo N100 has such a chip), and if this option is needed on yours, too, I'd like to add it statically.

RE Comment 13, 14, 15
Thanks - I tried 3.13-rc3 with your two alsa patches (attachments 117991
and 118001) :-

  I got the same result as with plain 3.13-rc3 - except to confirm that
  now "Loopback Mixing" is no longer needed and is gone.

        -------

Just to clarify / correct the effect of line_in controls on front panel
mic (this applies to 3.12.x and 3.13-rc3 plain and patched) :-

  The effect of line_in_mute on mic lasts until the mic_mute is cycled
  off and then back on again. Likewise the effect of line_in_gain on mic is
  real but can be cancelled by waggling mic_gain a bit".

0x0F Microphone Selector
Chooses the microphone inputs between the MIC_1/2 and
C/LFE pins. Contains the microphone gain boost amplifier.

0x10 Line In selector
Chooses the line in inputs between the line in, surround and
MIC_1/2 pins.

node 0x11 MIC_1/2 Swap
Swaps the left/right association of MIC_1/2 on the input pins
only. Allows up mix, spreading one microphone to both left
and right output channels.

eem missing rear mic for 5.1 support 

you have to verify all pin complexes with pincap DETECT by using hda-verb GET_PIN_SENSE

the driver require three pins at same location

Comment 26 William 2013-12-13 13:12:39 UTC
RE comments 19-22 :-

I re-tested with initially just the rear panel line out and front panel
headphone plugged in (see attached info's comment 23-25).

For 3.11.9 there was no difference in info output when the rear panel
line in was plugged in.

For 3.13-rc3 plain and patched there was one difference in
info output when the rear panel line in was plugged in :-

        control.34 {
                iface CARD
                name 'Line Out CLFE Jack'
                value false       // Changes to true when line in plugged in
                comment {
                        access read
                        type BOOLEAN

you have to use hda-verb 


sudo hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x1c GET_PIN_SENSE 0


the value return 0x80000000 when line in jack is plugged in and return 0 when line in jack is unplugged if node 0x1c is Line in jack


the node of the three input jacks(front mic, rear mic and line in) must be verify 

do you have a HDA front audio panel support jack detection ?

do plug-in of headphone automute Line out or speaker ?

Like AC97, it only has one Mic Boost volume for mic1 and mic2 ) 


once you found the five audio jacks

you have to fix the pin fixup of AD1986A_FIXUP_3STACK in patch_analog.c

or 

use hdajackretask to overwrite the jack and remove those redudant pins by retask it as  0x411111f0 [N/A]

################

I tried front panel mic and headphones with a range of nid's but
there were no value changes.  So, as far as I can see, there
is no front panel jack detection. That is possibly down to the
actual front panel sub assembly rather than the Asus M2NPV-VM
motherboard.

The front panel headphone socket and rear panel "line out"
act independently under all kernel versions. Plugging headphones
into the front panel headphone socket has no effect on "line out".
(which is ok by me).

As you say the front panel mic and rear panel mic are summed
and then go through common controls (that's the way it works
under kernels up to and including 3.11.9 - which is ok by me).


So have just the two multipurpose sockets which are on the
rear panel :-

Light blue  "Line in" / "Surround sound out"

Pink         "Mic in" / "Centre/LFE"

The lime coloured rear panel "line out" socket is (I assume)
not switched but can be thought of as "line out" or
as "Front Speakers of a 4 or 6 speaker set up".

-------------
When it gets to the patch_analog.c file I'm "out of my depth".
Comment 32 William 2013-12-14 17:02:37 UTC
Progress !
Thanks, those pins look promising. Created file pin-raymond-2-att-118361.txt :-

0x1a 0x02214021  /* headphone */
0x1b 0x01014011  /* front */
0x1c 0x01813030  /* line-in */
0x1d 0x01a19020  /* rear mic */
0x1e 0x411111f0  /* N/A */
0x1f 0x02a190f0  /* front mic */
0x20 0x411111f0  /* N/A */

Then running under 3.13-rc3 with two patches (att 117991, 118001) :-

hw_device=/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:10.1/sound/card0/hwC0D0
echo "1"                         > ${hw_device}/clear
cat ~wjf/alsa-info/pin-raymond-2-att-118361.txt |while read key val; do  echo "$key $val" > ${hw_device}/user_pin_configs; done
echo "add_stereo_mix_input=1"    > ${hw_device}/hints
echo "1"                         > ${hw_device}/reconfig

I now get a working rear panel "line in" and rear panel mic.

The only problem is that front mic does not work and that there are separate front an rear mic gain controls both of which affect the rear mic.

Should I be testing against plain 3.13-rc3 ?

[My cd drive is playing up so I'll have to sort that out before continuing].

the patch seem fix your problem in hda-emulator

 need to fix up those incorrect pins for those have hda front audio panel which support jack detection

		.v.pins = (const struct hda_pintbl[]) {
			{ 0x1c, 0x01813030 }, /* line-in */
			{ 0x1d, 0x01a19020 }, /* rear mic */
			{ 0x20, 0x411111f0 }, /* N/A */
			{}
		},

if the front audio panel does not support jack detection , need to set misc bit for the front panel jacks

0x1a 0x02214121  /* headphone */
0x1f 0x02a191f0  /* front mic */

have you check the front audio panel connector and your chassis specifcation
your front audio panel seem not support jack detection

it is strange that the impedance of mic is lower than the others jack

0x1c and 0x1d should be line in and rear mic if surroun51 work when channel mode switch to 6ch 

the only issue is whether the front mic jack is really 0x1f ?

Re comment 43 :-

The header on the motherboard for front panel audio connection has 10 pins
Of these 10, only 9 are named in the board's manual, the other one is presumably
unused.  Of these 9 only 7 are used in the front panel cable - the
"presence#" and "sense send" are not connected. The ones connected are
port1L port1R port2R port2L gnd sense1_return sense2_return.
Comment 45 Raymond 2013-12-21 01:03:00 UTC
if bios setup did not have any option for you to select the front audio panel type : HDA or AC97

you need to set bit 8 of pin default of headphone (MISC=NO_PRESENCE)
which disable the creation of jack detection control of headphone and "auto mute mode" control



Simple mixer control 'Auto-Mute Mode',0
  Capabilities: enum
  Items: 'Disabled' 'Enabled'
  Item0: 'Enabled'

automic is disabled when your have more than two pins to be used as input sources


the alternative is to use hint to disable all jacks detection 

jack_detect=0

RE comments 45, 46

The BIOS has an "HDA Audio" enable/disable setting but if it is disabled
it disables the whole on board sound.

The motherboard manual says the board's front panel header can be used for
HDA/Azalia or AC97 front panels but recommends HDA. I think AC97 has a front
panel mic which is mono only. When it works the front panel mic on my PC is
definitely stereo.

--------------

With the previous pin settings (see comment 42) and 3.13-rc4, I tried
the "jack_detect=0" - now the front panel headphones work ok and the 3 rear
panel sockets ok but the front panel mic is still dead (and there is still
the weird interaction of the mic controls on the rear mic).

For this configuration alsa-info attached as attachment 119211 [details].

you better use early patching to fix the pin and hints instead of dynamic reconfiguration since unsolicited event should be disabled after it is retasked as [N/A]

may be this bug force you to use jack-detect=0 since the controls are removed and recreated when using dynamic reconfigration


your motherboard also have midi/game port (enabled in bios setup) which you can load snd-mpu401 to connect external midi devices

REDUCED SUPPORT COMPONENTS

Multiple Microphone Sourcing: 
The MIC_1/2, LINE_IN and C/LFE pins can all be selected as sources for
microphone input (boost amplifier).

Multiple VREF_OUT Pins: 
Each microphone-capable pin group (MIC_1/2, LINE_IN and C/LFE) has separate,
software controllable VREF_OUT pins, reducing the need for external biasing components.

Internal Microphone Mixing: 
Any combination of the MIC_1/2, LINE_IN and C/LFE pins can be summed to
produce the microphone input. This removes the need for external mixing components in applications that externally mix microphone sources.

Advanced Jack Presence Detection: 
Using two codec pins, eight resistors and isolated switch jacks, the AD1986A can
detect jack insertion on eight separate jacks.

Internal Microphone/Line In/C/LFE Sharing: 
On systems that share the microphone with the C/LFE jack no external components are required. The microphone selector can select the LINE_IN pins when the microphone and line input devices are swapped.

Internal Line In/Microphone/Surround Sharing: 
On systems that share the line in with the surround jack no external components are required.

Yes "early patching" is an improvement in that jack_detect=0 is no longer
needed to make the headphones work. 

The rear panel mic is still dependent on the front mic controls and the
front panel mic still does not work.

Comment 54 Takashi Iwai 2014-01-07 17:19:49 UTC
OK, so the two patches below should fix major issues:

- correct pin configs for ASUS 3stack
- remove duplicated controls for front and rear mics

The control names will be still "Rear Mic" although they affect both front and rear mics.  This should be fixed later.

But, a remaining question is why the front mic doesn't work properly.
Do you mean that the recording from the front mic doesn't work although the analog-loopback works, or both recording and analog-loopback doesn't work?

Note that the analog loopback of front mic would work only when the front mic is selected as a capture source.  This is a limitation due to a strange design of this codec.

Try the two patches, then you can remove the pincfg section of early patching.  With the latest sound git tree, the add_stereo_mix_input hint can be removed, too.

If it's confirmed that the front mic still doesn't work (recording and/or loopback), please give alsa-info.sh output while testing the front mic.

Looks much better. Front Mic playback and capture now work....

However selecting capture on rear mic silences front mic until front mic
capture is selected (which likewise silences rear mic until rear mic capture
has been selected again). Selecting, say, Line or CD capture has no effect on
state of the mics. On startup rear mic capture is selected so initially front
mic does not function.

Comment 61 William 2014-01-08 19:42:08 UTC
RE Comment #57

Yes under Kernel 3.11.9 "Stereo Downmix" works fine. So basically I can record
whatever is playing back through the speakers / headphones (which can be, say,
a mix of PCM, Line and Mic). The level recorded is a function of the 'input'
gains (eg PCM, Line etc) and the "Capture", "digital" gains - it is independent
of the "Front", "Master", "Headphone" gains.  

Under Kernel 3.11.9 the resulting mic signal is just the sum of the "rear mic"
and "front mic".
Comment 62 Takashi Iwai 2014-01-08 20:14:26 UTC
Currently the generic parser prefers the exclusive input route than the sum of multiple sources, so that you can choose one of front or rear mics.  Otherwise it's impossible to operate, e.g. when a laptop has two inputs, an internal mic as a rear pin and an external mic jack as a front pin.

It'd be relatively easy to make the parser handling the mixed sum as the primary source.  In that case, you'll see no difference between rear and front mics but there will be only one "Mic".

The fact that either front or rear mic can be routed at the same time is, as mentioned earlier, the design issue of AD1986A codec.  Other codecs don't behave like that, but this one is a bit strange design as a preliminary model.

seem ac97 can spread stream by hardware 


why do the driver still call hda_codec_cleanup_stream for NID=0x4
and  NID=0x5 ?

how do the downix work ?

does it add surround DAC and center/lfe using left or right channels of the downmix switch ?

Re-tested using kernel 3.14-rc1 (with no extra patches, and no firmware
config file).

Playback :-
--------

Can successfully playback, "line", "cd", "beep", and either "front mic" or
"rear mic".

However selection between front/rear mic for playback is done via the
"Front mic" and "Rear mic" "capture" controls - which is not intuitive.

Capture
-------

Capture of "line", "cd", "front mic", "rear mic", or "Stereo mix" ok.

can you specify dump_coef=1 to dump the value of coefficients and check whether it is different from windows driver ADIHdAud.inf ?
