Hi David,

Is there a bug in Launchpad open to track this issue?  ie. is there
confirmation that this indeed resolves the issue?  Care to also add your
SOB (signed-off-by) to this for Maverick?  Also, I'm just inlining the
patch in question below for ease of review:

Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: hda - Handle pin NID 0x1a on ALC259/269

The pin NID 0x1a should be handled as well as NID 0x1b.
Also added comments.
