Hi,

I think this the patch here below is simpler than the other I sent.
snd_hda_get_default_vref() guesses the vref input pins. We know that
some of these are for headphones/headset mics, so we could set the
vref to HIZ for these.

Are there systems that would misbehave with this change?

Sorry, I think I misunderstood the meaning of the two flags and they
can't be used like that.
