[PATCH v2] sound: soc: codecs: wcd-mbhc-v2: expose ALSA control for jack
Posted by Dylan Van Assche 3 years, 6 months ago
Jack detection is currently fully functional via the input
interface together with multimedia buttons, but is not exposed
as an ALSA control. Therefore, ALSA clients such as PulseAudio
do not pick up the jack detection events as they only support
one of the possible interface (ALSA control or input interface,
but not both). Expose the jack events as an ALSA control and input
interface to provide ALSA clients both interfaces.

Can confirm that this is required for Pulseaudio to pick up the
headphones properly. I tested this in my Xiaomi Poco F1 running
postmarketOS (Phosh Mobile Desktop Environment). You can check the
following pulseaudio issue for some more info.
