Well... It seems that something went unnoticed. This command seems
to be essential for this (and the revised) patch to get the headphone
output at all:

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

I also used to run the other command after unplugging and re-plugging
(without it, the headphone is muted after re-plugging):

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

But running

        hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x24 SET_EAPD 0x03

also helps to restore the headphone output after re-plugging.

Attached.

It does. And there is no output from the speakers.

The speaker is muted with this patch, when I plug the headphone.

And this command will turn it on, but only if I also activate
"Independent Headphone".

These command seem to have no effect at all.
