If this is 100% reproducible, you'll see likely a difference in
/proc/asound/card0/codec#* file between working and non-working
states.  Could you attach codec files in both states?

The quality problem is perhaps because of the wrong pin setting.
It's set in Hi-Z without vref.  But it's a bit strange because
stac92xx_get_vref() should return the proper vref value.  Could you
check whether this really gets called and which value is returned,
e.g. by adding printk() there?
