Actually I'm thinking how the MST things are supposed to work here.
The machine here has a docking station connected to port D, and it has
to DP connectors.  Meanwhile it has a built-in DP port on port C.
The latter works fine while dock ports don't.

Suppose if I plug two monitors on the docking station.  How would the
audio in HD-audio side be set up?
