There are some restrictions for automatic parser.  The STAC/IDT
parser supports dual headphones, but realtek one doesn't, so far.
But, anyway 3 headphones are wrong.

Note that by setting the pins to HP, you get the amp boost in the
codec chip, but it doesn't mean it's better audio quality.  For
line-outs, you shouldn't put such an amp usually.
