HDA is apparently very difficult for vendors to get right. Linux has
thousands of lines of vendor- and model-specific patches to fix it.
Start here:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/sound/pci/hda/patch_realtek.c
If you're lucky, you'll find a patch for your laptop or a similar laptop
that has the same problem(s). The next step is to figure out how to
express the patch in FreeBSD's driver.
Hopefully, someone will take interest in porting many of Linux's HDA
patches to FreeBSD. Sound is probably one of the top three reasons
people fail to run FreeBSD on their laptop.
