David,

You are dropped from the CC list due to your follow-up-to header.
Are you adding it on purpose?

Maybe could allow users to manually set/unset that bit.

David, you may check the intel_audio_dump tool in

        git://anongit.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/intel-gpu-tools

It will show whether your SDVO_AUDIO_ENABLE bit is set (grep for
"Audio_Output_Enable" or "audio enabled").

If unset, you can trivially set the bit with
intel_reg_read/intel_reg_write.
(I'm not sure if this will magically make audio work though.)

Thanks,
Fengguang
