Whatever else you need just let me know

Short answer: put hint.hdaa.0.nid33.config="as=2 seq=15" into your /boot/device.hints.

Long answer: snd_hda(4) and this fine answer ;)

OMG!! This worked right away. Thanks for the fine answer part. I'm going to read it and re-read it so i understand. What i got from it is my as=2 was my speaker and nid 33 was my headphones. i basically did as=2 to put my speaker and headphones together. it also shows in my /dev/sndstat as 1 pcm0 I love this OS

Thanks again
 
Almost yes. Your speaker is nid=20 and your headphone is nid=33. For the headphone switch to work they must have the same association number (=group them together) and the headphone needs the sequence number 15. And that's exactly what the hint does: give nid=33 the same as=2 like nid=20 and set its seq=15.

Is it possible you can Look at this? Basically i gave up on my Chromebook but i want it to be my main laptop i use for everything. it only has 1 pcm0: <Intel Kaby Lake (HDMI/DP 8ch)> (play) default basically it plays from the hdmi port but i would like it to play from the speakers and somehow get the mic working also. I don't see other nids to play with to create the new pcm devices. is that even possible ? from the manpage and what you did to fix my issue there where more pins that you could use. Thanks for looking into this if you can. I apologize if i'm asking to much I got this from a Verbose Boot also This is a perfect thread that didn't get resolved of my issue. Just found it
 
Sorry I can't contribute much to your other problem because I don't know what a definitive solution could be. Aside from the HDMI output nothing else is detected by the OS, so there's hardly anything one could do. I guess that sof firmware is needed, but alas, that's not available on FreeBSD. Sorry.
