alsa-project/alsa-ucm-conf issue #782 was opened from Ab0lish:

Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 15ITL05, sof-hda-dsp, dual-DAC issue (node 0x17 receiving both DAC1+DAC2 with no crossover)

Hardware: Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 15ITL05
Codec: Realtek ALC287, subsystem ID 0x17aa380a
Driver: sof-hda-dsp (sof-firmware)
Kernel: 6.12 (Debian 13)

Problem:
Speakers sound hollow and metallic. No UCM2 profile exists for this hardware so the generic HDA profile is used.

Root cause identified:
The codec has two DACs and two speaker pin groups (quad-speaker, Dolby Atmos):
- Node 0x14 (bass/woofers): connected to DAC2 (0x02) only ✓
- Node 0x17 (tweeters): connected to BOTH DAC1 (0x03) and DAC2 (0x02) ✗

Both DACs receive the same full-range signal with no crossover filtering, causing acoustic phase interference between the tweeter and woofer pairs. On Windows, the Dolby Atmos driver applies a crossover inside the SOF DSP.

Expected behaviour:
- Node 0x17 (tweeters, DefAssociation=0x1 Sequence=0x0) → DAC1 only
- Node 0x14 (woofers,  DefAssociation=0x1 Sequence=0x1) → DAC2 only

Codec dump attached.
