We need to force on "LDO1" widget when a jack is plugged in. That is for push button detection(not implement yet). Also, all jack related functions such as headphone playback, headset capture need "LDO1" on. However, we don't need these functions in suspend. Also, it seems the external power will be cut down in suspend even codec suspend function is not called. In that case, codec will lost its register setting. I.e. Codec registers will be cleaned. And we need to sync with cache. > > ------Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail. _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
