Subject: sound regression in 3.2-rc3 (lenovo laptops)

Hi everyone,

I installed rc6 today on my laptop and discovered sound
no longer works.  I can hear a few clicks from the speakers as it boots,
but nothing else.

After a while I got the internal speaker in the laptop working by
randomly clicking between all the permutations of (mute, speaker,
headphone, main, speaker, beep, alsa, pulseaudio) in my mixer app.  But,
I couldn't get any noise out of the headphone jack.

I took a wild guess based on the changesets to snd-hda-intel and
narrowed it down to the change below.  With this reverted, I don't have
an alsa headphone output anymore (just master, pcm) and everything is
working again.

My laptop is an x201, not a T510...

    ALSA: HDA: Use model=auto for Thinkpad T510
    
    The user reports that model=auto works fine for him. Using
    model=auto bring in new features such as jack detection notification
    to userspace.
    
    Alsa info is available at http://paste.ubuntu.com/805351/
