Comment (by ttcoder):

 @korli you were right; not sure how I got that confused but.. This week I
 started clean, did an hda driver "mod" from scratch and sure enough, it
 works without using VID_SET_CONVERTER_CHANNEL_COUNT at all, just as well
 as the old driver modification did.

 Status update on this ticket.. Due to limited availability of our current
 "reference" motherboard we're trying to be even more flexible in terms of
 re-routing jacks, so that we can choose the next motherboard(s) from a
 wider set, even among those with only 3+2 jacks. Currently I'm mod'ing the
 driver to read settings at `config/settings/kernel/drivers/hda.settings`
 but that is not quite in the BeOS/Haiku philosophy so in the end we'll
 probably try to turn that into a GUI in the Media prefs panel maybe.
