This was noted on my Dell Inspiron laptop which uses the Sigmatel STAC9220. A
bug report was submitted under
kern/34071 [non-critical/medium]:
azalia device driver doesn't support pin sensing
I'm currently in Beijing and unable to follow-up on Tamura Kent's request at
the moment. The azalia didn't have an event handler for this chipset when I
last looked at the source code and suspect that it still hasn't been
implemented.
