asus-mode4 reconfigures the pin 0x16, not 0x1e, so mode4 itself is the right
setup.

What's missing is the information of the right-only channel, and yes, this
should be informed via chmap API. But in this case, better to open another bug
to track this issue, because it's basically an enhancement. As you already
mentioned, PA doesn't honor the chmap information even if the driver provides,
thus we'll need more implementations in PA side, too.

So, just create a new bug report with the short introduction you put here.
Then I'll work on the driver side patch later, and the rest is more job in PA
side.

2 bug reports has been created - if someone wants to track :
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=846529
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=846531

so the thing that is unknown is the pulseaudio - i dont have an idea when or if it will ever support chmap api
