You can try GPIO setup via hda-verb program. ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/misc/hda-verb-0.3.tar.gz For example, hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 1 SET_GPIO_MASK 3 hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 1 SET_GPIO_DIR 3 hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 1 SET_GPIO_DATA 3 will set GPIO#0 and #1 to 1. Try the above first without model option. BTW, looking at your alsa-info output, all volumes are quite low. Try to raise more.
