Toleda, thanks for your efforts.The Z77X-UD5H no green port audio problem is not a pin configuration problem. The Gigabyte representative says it is an "amplifier activate" issue, not an audio problem. The proposed hardware fix (linked above) is to “always enable Realtek H/W amplifier”. For the Z77X-UD5H Rev. 1.0, "some boards requires correct driver from Realtek to activate amplifier circuit". In my opinion, it is unlikely Gigabyte will add any more detail to this discussion.
The orange/black/grey solutions simply use different pin/mixer/amp circuits that are working correctly. Perhaps, there is some pathmap magic to work around the problem with the grey port.
Do you know what Gigabyte's position is on this?
Do they acknowledge that there is a hardware problem with this board?
Are they offering repair/replacement for Linux users?
