Another MBP 5.2 owner here, using Debian unstable with legacy bios boot, amd64, alsa-driver 1.0.20 and patch posted above.

I did not get pulseaudio to work and I commented out the stuff in /etc/asound.conf again. My left+right HP speakers both work fine anyway. However,

- I also have the noise reported by Chris Lasher above, even though mic/line are muted and gain is minimal.
- The PCM and Master controls only work for speakers, not for HP.
- With mpd, I have to reduce the gain of the HP to about 0% to be comfortable, and 20 is pretty loud already. Using alsamixer, all other settings muted or 0%
- With mplayer, loudness-levels seem more normal. PCM mixer works. Both, mpd and mplayer are run with alsa. However, I can not unload snd_mixer_oss, that might be the culprit here..

Did you compare to PIN settings in windows?
