power_save_node is already 0 as default for patch_alc269(), so it must
be irrelevant.

It's only one thing, there are tons of different fixes :)
alc274_fixup_bind_dacs() rather specifies the routing so that the
speaker is connected to the preferred DAC.
Many click noises come from the default pin shut-up behavior. You
can disable it or change it in other way. Also, setting
auto_mute_via_amp may influence on such behavior (that is included in
alc274_fixup_bind_dacs()).
Note that many quirks can be enabled even without compiling but via
the codec patch loading (using hints).
