I was wrong about _vref. Output %X of pincap  and returned vref as
follows on modprobe:

hda_codec: STAC922x, Apple subsys_id=106b1700
ALSA /root/tmp/alsa-driver-1.0.14rc4/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:2270:

ALSA /root/tmp/alsa-driver-1.0.14rc4/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:2278:

Could you check the connection of node 0x12 at the very beginning?
I guess it's not 0x0b.

Node 0x12 [Audio Selector] wcaps 0x30010d: Stereo Amp-Out
 Amp-Out caps: ofs=0x00, nsteps=0x04, stepsize=0x27, mute=0
 Amp-Out vals:  [0x00 0x00]
 Connection: 7
    0x0e* 0x15 0x0f 0x0b 0x0c 0x0d 0x0a

Then try to add model=macbook or model=macbook-pro-v2.  Now iMac has
its own pin setting (corresponding to model=imac-intel).

I am on an intel imac. Also I wanted to mention that I have manged to
get hold of the pin configs supplied by apple for windows for all
apple systems. I mailed them last month to the list. I don't honestly
know if they could be of any use to you. For example according to them
for my codec subsystem's the pin config is:

[HKR\Settings\Pin\0A]
CfgDflt = dword: 0x0121E21F
Action = hex: 01,0A,81,0C,81,10,85,51,05,21
[HKR\Settings\Pin\0B]
CfgDflt = dword: 0x90A7012E
[HKR\Settings\Pin\0C]
CfgDflt = dword: 0x9017E110
[HKR\Settings\Pin\0D]
CfgDflt = dword: 0x400000FD
[HKR\Settings\Pin\0E]
CfgDflt = dword: 0x400000FE
Action = hex: 01,10,81,0A,81,0C
[HKR\Settings\Pin\0F]
CfgDflt = dword: 0x0181E020
Action = hex: 09,0F
[HKR\Settings\Pin\10]
CfgDflt = dword: 0x1145E230
[HKR\Settings\Pin\11]
CfgDflt = dword: 0x11C5E240
[HKR\Settings\Pin\15]
CfgDflt = dword: 0x400000FC
[HKR\Settings\Pin\1B]
CfgDflt = dword: 0x400000FB
[HKR\Settings\GPIO]
00                                   = hex: 85
01                                   = hex: 82

This in comparison to the current imac-intel pinconfig

static unsigned int imac_intel_pin_configs[10] = {
	0x0121e230, 0x90a70120, 0x9017e110, 0x400000fe,
	0x400000fd, 0x0181e021, 0x1145e040, 0x400000fa,
	0x400000fc, 0x400000fb,
};

My mail on the archive with the pinconfigs is
http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2007-April/000731.html

I have tried using this pinconfig with rc4 and the input is set okay,
but I still need to set capture to 0. A major issue is that there is
no sound with this pinconfig. This is the output of modprobe:

ALSA /root/tmp/alsa-driver-1.0.14rc4/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:1795:
hda_codec: model 'imac-intel' is selected
ALSA /root/tmp/alsa-driver-1.0.14rc4/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:2270:
autoconfig: line_outs=0 (0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0)
ALSA /root/tmp/alsa-driver-1.0.14rc4/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:2274:
speaker_outs=1 (0xc/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0)
ALSA /root/tmp/alsa-driver-1.0.14rc4/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:2278:
hp_outs=1 (0xa/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0)
ALSA /root/tmp/alsa-driver-1.0.14rc4/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:2286:

17 - AC_PINCTL_VREF_80
17 - AC_PINCTL_VREF_80

I have attached the initial codec info after modprobing with the
pinconfig from apple.

What happens if you use different values for "Capture Volume" and
"Capture Mux Volume"?

There seems to be a proportional dependancy. If I increase caption vol
by 1 and lower capture mux vol by 1 it will record (not 100% sure on
the 1 to 1 factor here).

Else, recording doesn't work if I change capture volume to something >
0. This is the change in the codec:

Node 0x17 [Audio Selector] wcaps 0x300903: Stereo Amp-In
  Amp-In caps: N/A
-  Amp-In vals:  [0x00 0x00]
+  Amp-In vals:  [0x0e 0x0e]
  Connection: 1
     0x12

I can provide you a root ssh account on the machine if you want?
