Even the alpha/test version? Firstly, please submit queries like this to the ALSA development list. While I'm not fussed, other developers may not respond to emails sent only to their private addresses. It also means you don't have to guess who would be the most appropriate person to ask. Consequently I have added alsa-devel to the CC of this email. It would probably not take a lot of effort to add support for the ALC268 chip given that the ALC260 and ALC262 are supported. Furthermore, it seems that some work has already gone into this - see for example https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=3104 So I would say that ALC268 support is being worked on. Pshou can probably give more details or provide further assistance. Note that my involvement in the ALSA RealTek driver was limited to the extended ALC260 support I added to take full advantage of this chip in my laptop. I don't have access to machines with other Realtek chips in them and so I'm not in the best position to provide direct assistance for other chips.
