Title: Beats Audio
Post by: OldGuy on August 11, 2015, 03:28:44 PM
If you have an HP laptop with Beats Audio - it takes some tweaking to make it work in Linux.  I finally sat down and Google'd the various fixes and found the simplest.  You need hda-jack-retask which is part of the alsa-tools-gui.  Once loaded, run the program and make the following edits:

codec: IDT 92HD91BXX

under options check "Show unconnected pins"

pin ID: 0x0d, override and choose "Internal speaker"
pin ID: 0x0f, override and choose "Internal speaker"
pin ID: 0x10, override and choose "Internal speaker LFE"


Then click the "Apply now" button and then the "Install boot override" button

That's it.  It works great on my DV6-7245us laptop, might work on yours as well...
