Hello

I have read a post in lkml.org that states that the problem experienced in
rc3 has gone (1). That is not the case for me.

My audio device is

0000:00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 01)

In 2.6.10 and in 2.6.11-rc3 & 4 the clock is set to 48khz.

eg:

intel8x0_measure_ac97_clock: measured 49502 usecs
intel8x0: clocking to 48000

It uses an Analog Devices AD1981B

I have put a tar file of the /proc/asound directory of 2.6.10 and 2.6.11-rc4 in

http://pusa.uv.es/~ulisses/asound-intel8x0/

the tar files were done while playing pcm audio, (not being eard in rc4).

I have found that I had to Mute __both__ "Headphone Jack Sense" and
"Line Jack Sense" in order to ear the audio in rc4.

I keep seeing this advice, but what tool do you use to mute them? I don't see anything like that in alsamixer, aumix, or any other program I tried.

Please let me know if you need further info or you want a tester

All this is on a IBM Thinkpad R51 - Type 2887 -AVG

ASUS 1681 - same symptoms.
