WDMHDA Alpha-021 2026-06-15

  • Fixed codec communication by PIO on NForce chipsets
  • When using PIO, tries the listed codecs first before probing all slots blindly
  • Cleaned up codec & controller initialization logic
  • Messages sent to the codec don't block all interrupts for up to 6ms anymore
  • Reduce lag when creating or tearing down a stream
  • Add jack hotplug detection
    • Plugging in a jack to the headphone out will properly mute the speaker out.
  • Cache the last format sent to the codec to avoid a click at start of system sounds
  • Add note in readme that Digital Audio Extraction is required for CD audio playback, and how to enable that
  • Increased max audio buffer size to 256k
