Hello Thomas,
I have sent a new patch to fix this LED regression, after applying this
patch (ALSA: hda/realtek - fix the pop noise on headphone for lenovo
laptops) and the new patch (ALSA: hda/realtek - Fix the mute LED
regresion on Lenovo X1
Carbon), the issue will be fixed.
This is the new patch I sent (also CCed to stable):
http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2018-December/142747.html
About the noise, if you follow the steps as below, you would hear the
noticeable click/pop noise:
1. Hookup a set of headphones that you can separately place in/on your
ears. (ie. ear buds)
2. Put only the right headphone in/on your ear.
3. Go to the Gnome sound settings and bring up the "Test Speakers" function
4. Play the left speaker test
You would expect to hear nothing in the right ear, but instead you hear
a "pop" at the start of each word spoken. ("pop" Front "pop" left). You
can repeat with the left headphone and see similar results. I even tried
shifting the balance all the way to the left/right and get the same
results.
Thanks,
Hui.

commit c4cfcf6f4297c9256b53790bacbbbd6901fef468 upstream.
We have several Lenovo laptops with the codec alc285, when playing
sound via headphone, we can hear click/pop noise in the headphone, if
we let the headphone share the DAC of NID 0x2 with the speaker, the
noise disappears.
The Lenovo laptops here include P52, P72, X1 yoda2 and X1 carbon.
[...]
on a current Thinkpad X1 Yoga, this breaks the LED functionality on the
audio- and mic-mute buttons. While the buttons still work, the LEDs are
permanently off and do not reflect the mute state any more.
Reverting this patch restores the LED functionality.
Here, even without this patch, there is no click/pop noise noticeable
when using headphones.
Regards,
Thomas
