no jack detection when Misc = NO_PRESENCE

Node 0x11 [Pin Complex] wcaps 0x40018d: Stereo Amp-Out

how accurate are the Impedance sense of jack detection of the rear panel  ?

it is strange that the state of two sinks are RUNNING (sink #0 and sink # 1)

Did you test with 16 bit or 24 bit audio ?

analog output can support 8000, 11025, 16000, 22050 and 32000 when you turn
off "IEC958 Default PCM"

just change "PCM Playback Volume" similar to "Digital Capture Volume" which
has both atten and gain

but it won't have any effect if you are not using  front device
