F10 sound problem with ALC1200

[musinsky]

I have the same problem as http://fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=201553
(ASUS P5Q-EM with ALC1200)

I tried on F10 (preview) kernel-2.6.27.4-68 with alsa-*-1.0.18-6.rc3 (default in distribution) and with alsa-*-1.0.18 (from alsa project web site), without any effect ...

Please help with ALC1200 on F10 or F9.

Thanks and sorry to my poor English

Did you upgrade the system ? Make sure you installed alsa 1.0.18 through the package system.

Then check your kernel documents and find the ALSA configuration guide. It should be somewhere like the below:
/usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-2.6.27/Documentation/sound/alsa/ALSA-Configuration.txt

Try to search ALC1200 in that documents. If there is some model available, modify your /etc/modprobe.conf and add a line like this:

options snd-hda-intel model=#####

Replace ##### with the model you found. If one does not work, try another till the end.

Good luck~

Finally !!! on my PC: ASUS P5Q-EM Realtek ALC1200, F10 Preview (9.93 Rawhide), alsa-1.0.18-6.rc3 (default in Fedora distribution)
solution is very simple(after two day experimentation), add this line to /etc/modprobe.conf

options snd-hda-intel probe_mask=1

probe_mask=1 is important, default probe_mask=-1 (minus 1)
work too with model=auto (default) or model=6stack-dig or additional models

options snd-hda-intel model=auto probe_mask=1

without probe_mask=1 always to same error (/var/log/messages):
ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:605: hda_intel: azx_get_response timeout, switching to polling mode: last cmd=0x100f0000
ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:612: hda_intel: azx_get_response timeout, switching to single_cmd mode: last cmd=0x100f0000
