It's not possible to have independent line out and headphone output on
your hardware. There is only one analog device on your card.

The easy way to output same audio to both output is disable drivers auto
mute mode and change pulseaudio conf files

Simple mixer control 'Auto-Mute Mode',0
Capabilities: enum
Items: 'Disabled' 'Enabled'
Item0: 'Enabled'

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound.git/tree/Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio.txt

You have to ask Tiwai to enable independent hp for your realtek codec on
desktop ( e.g. no internal mic and hda controller
support enough SDO)

You can specify hint indep_hp=1 by early patching,  the driver
automatically disable automute when you switch on independent hp switch


https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound.git/tree/Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio-Controls.txt

Independent HP When this enum control is enabled, the headphone output is routed from an individual stream (the third PCM such as hw:0,2) instead of
the primary stream

Okay, so following your advice I set up modprobe.d to specify the
early-patching files:

$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/snd_hda_intel.conf
options snd_hda_intel patch=onboard-patch,hdmi-patch

and specified the hint in /lib/firmware/onboard-patch:

$ cat /lib/firmware/onboard-patch
[codec]
0x10ec0892 0x1849d892 0

[hint]
indep_hp = 1

this seems to work fine, I can query the card hints and indep_hp shows up:

$ cat /sys/class/sound/hwC0D0/hints
indep_hp = 1

but pulseaudio still only shows one sink. Do I need to manually load
another sink module?

also, my alsa-info after now: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=f7de54b96d1cb50391d638e3bc687730daf17a2f

so there now is a new "Alt-Analog" playback device:

before:

!!Aplay/Arecord output

APLAY

now:

So I tried adding a second module-alsa-card:

$ pacmd load-module module-alsa-sink card_name=alsa_card.pci-0000_00_1b.2
Module load failed

(changed the .0 to .2 because thats the Alt Analog right?)
