I spent may be 1week in total over the years playing with that. Each time I had a new machine with a different audio chip inside sound was not working. I use debian stable with custom built kernel. Last year when I received my Dell e5440 - again no sound. I then found out the trick with the enable=0,1. In your case it is the opposite. This is not perfect because you can use one but not both. AFAIR it is something in alsa - I think that someone mentioned something about mixer defaulting to 0=first device and because hdmi shows as first ... and s.o. It could be that the presence of two messes something somewhere. I hope they fix it somewhen soon. Unfort. no idea where one could raise a bug for this. regards
