Realtek takes a snapshot of the stable branches, then temporarily forks
for a while.  I'd expect to see a submission from them before 1.0.14
(but why wait).  Their latest package is
realtek-linux-audiopack-4.05b.tar.bz2, which has alsa-driver-1.0.12
(plus their changes), lib & utils are version 1.0.9.  There are
differences between their code and 1.0.13, and other users have reported
that the Realtek version works where 1.0.13 doesn't.

Remy's tarball that he sent is alsa-driver-1.0.9b_25a.tar.bz2, which I
assumed was based on 1.0.9b, but I'm now finding patches I submitted
prior to 1.0.11 release.  I'm slowly walking up the hg tree to try to
pinpoint the snapshot, otherwise there will be some ugly patch changes
(and I hate editing patch files directly - never could get the line
numbers to match).  The other thing they did was remove all other codec
references (patch_sigmatel.c, patch_analog.c, etc) from all of the hda
directory and hda support files (hda_codec.c, etc).  Right now I'm
focusing on the patch_realtek.c to hopefully get a patch against 1.0.13.
I'll then look over the other changes if Remy and albox still aren't
working.

It would be nice if vendors would upload their changes to the
mainstream.  Maybe I'm hoping for too much.
