I tried 3 patches (incl. yours) and only yours helped partly at least. I patched Alsa 1.0.15rc3. Sound mutes as soon as I change volume, and I can only rmmod/modprobe snd-hda-intel to get it back. But Surround is working with your patch as I can see: "speaker-test -Dplug:surround51 -c6 -t waw" recognizes correctly all speakears. "speaker-test -c6 -t waw" does not recognize the speakers correctly, but it probably should not, or ?! MythTv is playing stereo files only on the right speakers. I do not now is this a MythTv or Alsa problem. probably MythTv and I should create a .asoundrc which should correct this somehow. I did not try hg, because I thought that Alsa 1.0.15rc3 is very new.
