I think that the drivers should do this job, because some hardware variants have different requirements for the proper power-off/on sequence. The problem appears like an improper voltage change and the HDA driver has already a lot of code which is trying to eliminate these pops (but as you can see, it is not sufficient). Honestly, I don't know if it's good to keep this "hidden" to users or enable the power save feature by default and let users to report this, so we can look into this problem more when the affected hardware is identified.
