To recap: without any manually-specified model quirk, nothing works,
and with the model=auto quirk, only stereo playback through internal
speakers works?
That is correct ......
I also have no options appear in the sound menu for surround sound ...... on auto setting (quirk)
( but the options did show up when I added the line acer-aspire-7730g for surround sound etc ) .....
but no sounds played through the internal laptop speakers.
I can have a try tomorrow to see if external speakers work ..... but I need to get them off another setup.
