[PATCH v2 0/2] Fix Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon 7th gen bass volume

[Benjamin Poirier]

This is an updated version of the patchset to fix the low output volume on
the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon 7th gen. With these patches, the volume
output with the Linux driver matches the one with the Windows driver.
Volume control is effective and headphone output is unaffected.

Multiple users of this machine have reported a low output volume [1] when
using a kernel with commit d2cd795c4ece ("ALSA: hda - fixup for the bass
speaker on Lenovo Carbon X1 7th gen"). Many have tried these patches or a
similar workaround using `hda-verb` and prefer this configuration[2].

As noted in patch 2, the changes also depend on an associated alsa-ucm-conf
change.

Changes:

v1
==
https://lore.kernel.org/alsa-devel/20200211055651.4405-1-benjamin.poirier@gmail.com/

v2
==
* patch 1
Shortened log

* patch 2
Change log to replace experimental observations by information from diagram
posted on kernel.org bugzilla.
Select exactly the desired connection for node 0x17 (bass speakers) instead of
reusing alc295_fixup_disable_dac3().
Control node 0x21 (headphones) connection to avoid the volume "wobble"
effect described in the log.
Include SET_CONNECT_SEL command in fixup since it is not done by the hda
core.
Rename one control to reflect its new function and to use as a condition in
the ucm config.

[PATCH v2 1/2] ALSA: hda/realtek - Fix Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon 7th quirk subdevice id

[Benjamin Poirier]

1)
In snd_hda_pick_fixup(), quirks are first matched by PCI SSID and then, if
there is no match, by codec SSID. The Lenovo "ThinkPad X1 Carbon 7th" has
an audio chip with PCI SSID 0x2292 and codec SSID 0x2293[1]. Therefore, fix
the quirk meant for that device to match on .subdevice == 0x2292.

2)
The "Thinkpad X1 Yoga 7th" does not exist. The companion product to the
Carbon 7th is the Yoga 4th. That device has an audio chip with PCI SSID
0x2292 and codec SSID 0x2292[2]. Given the behavior of
snd_hda_pick_fixup(), it is not possible to have a separate quirk for the
Yoga based on SSID. Therefore, merge the quirks meant for the Carbon and
Yoga. This preserves the current behavior for the Yoga.

[PATCH v2 2/2] ALSA: hda/realtek - Replace Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon 7th quirk

[Benjamin Poirier]

As a result of commit d2cd795c4ece ("ALSA: hda - fixup for the bass speaker
on Lenovo Carbon X1 7th gen"), the sound output level on my machine, an X1
Carbon 7th gen, was reduced to ~65% of its previous level when playing
certain sounds. [1]

Internally, this laptop model has three outputs (PCM-OUT1, connection 0x02;
PCM-OUT2, connection 0x03; SP-OUT PCM, connection 0x06) which can be routed
to two sets of stereo speakers: Front (tweeters, node 0x14) and Bass
(woofers, node 0x17, aka Rear in some contexts) and one headphone output
(node 0x21). The tweeters are noticeably less powerful than the woofers.
[2]

Before commit d2cd795c4ece, the bass speakers were connected to SP-OUT PCM.
SP-OUT PCM is meant for s/pdif output and does not have volume control.
This connection made volume control commonly ineffective (using the Master
slider in alsa or pulseaudio apparently had little effect or alternated
between mute or max with nothing in between).

commit d2cd795c4ece added quirk ALC285_FIXUP_SPEAKER2_TO_DAC1 which
resulted in assigning both sets of speakers to PCM-OUT1, bringing
the two sets of speakers under one effective volume control but also
lowering the output volume noticeably.

Fix this by connecting PCM-OUT1 to Front speakers and PCM-OUT2 to Rear
speakers. Each set of speakers gets its own volume control and the max
output volume is restored to what it was before commit d2cd795c4ece. This
is done by setting the connection of node 0x17 to 0x03.

However, when we do this, the HDA auto config automatically changes the
connection of node 0x21 to 0x02. This output, meant for the front speakers,
has some "secret" equalizer which changes the output volume according to
the level of what's being played, after some delay[3]. This is undesirable
with headphones. Therefore, this patch manually limits the connection of
node 0x21 to 0x03.

The volume control for PCM-OUT2 is renamed to reflect its dual effect.
This name is also used in a modified alsa UCM profile. [4]

It is possible that the X1 Carbon 8th gen would benefit from the same
changes but I don't have a device to test that. Fixups are reordered so
that the devices for 7th & 8th gen can share the same chain after the first
fixup. The resulting chain is:
ALC295_FIXUP_TPX17_DUAL_SPEAKERS/ALC285_FIXUP_SPEAKER2_TO_DAC1
ALC285_FIXUP_THINKPAD_HEADSET_JACK
ALC269_FIXUP_THINKPAD_ACPI
ALC269_FIXUP_SKU_IGNORE

Thank you for this work. Perhaps, Takashi will have some comments to improve 
this quirk.

The new name is not ideal. Perhaps, a mirror (joined) control might be better 
in this case. I mean to create both "Bass Speaker Playback Volume" and 
"Headphone Playback Volume" with the similar NID control.

Or create "Speaker Playback" controls with 4 channels (and joined "Headphone 
Playback" controls).

8th gen hardware should be similar, so the new fixup should be applied to this 
hw, too.

It will cause regression with the old UCM configs. I would preper the manual 
model selection and switch this when things settle a bit in the user space. We 
definitely need a better way to control this volume separately for both 
tweeters and the bass speakers in the user space. The "Master" volume hack is 
far from the ideal solution.

For this time, keep ALC285_FIXUP_SPEAKER2_TO_DAC1 as the default fixup.

We'll do some testing here and confirm the fixes on the X1C7 and X1C8 (and Yoga)

Do let me know if there is any details Lenovo can provide that would help

The functionality of this patch is same like the hda-verb command is executed 
with the current kernel (run as root):

hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x17 SET_CONNECT_SEL 1

You can control tweeters with 'Speaker' volume control.
And headphones and bass speakers with the 'Headphone' volume control.

Yes, good point. I'll try to find a way that doesn't need ucm changes.

I'll look into that. As I'm working on this in my spare time, no
guarantee on how long it'll take.

Thanks for the review.

For other X1 users who might stumble upon this discussion; practical
usage of the hda-verb trick requires a way to apply it automatically[1]
and changes to the ucm profile[2].

Applied this one alone for now.  Let me check the second patch later.
