It's strange that the pin 0x25 shows EAPD 0x00 and pin-control 0x00.
They should be 0x02 and 0xc0 constantly.  Is it taken at the moment
the headphone is plugged, right?  Please give alsa-info.sh outputs at
both the headphone plugged and unplugged.

Could you check whether changing them makes the headphone output
working?  For example, get hda-verb program (see
Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio.txt) and run it like

	hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x25 SET_PIN_WID 0xc0
	hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x25 SET_EAPD 0x02


thanks,
