Additionally, I noticed that the results file from 'alsa-info.sh' the section about Module is does now show "macpro" under the model section.
Might I be doing something wrong?

You can create any file, typically, /etc/modprobe.d/sound or so.
Put the following line there
options snd-hda-intel model=macpro
Then reload the module, check the sysfs file
/sys/modules/snd_hda_intel/parameters/macpro to see whether the
specified option was really passed properly.
