Headphone/Main speaker Volume on daru2

Confirmed.

I've tried the latest BIOS update (which is in the beta stage at the moment). However, it did not solve the problem.
My next step is start researching ALSA to see if there is an answer to be found there.

Solved.

This problem is fixed by compiling the stable ALSA version (1.0.14) and adding this line to the bottom of the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base file:

options snd-hda-intel model=targa-dig

I've passed this information to our programmer and it will come down soon via a System 76 driver update.

Will we just need to run the driver or download and install a new System76 driver?

It will come down via the little orange Update Notification Icon.
When you see it, you will just need to go to System > Admin > System 76 Driver
and click the Install Tab and Install Button. Voila.

I know Carl is working on it now.
Probably early next week.

Fix committed to pending 2.0.9 driver release

I'm not sure what is going on, but after the 2.0.9 driver update the headphone issue went away. But today, the issue came back, and I don't remember changing anything with respect to volume/sound controls.

Just checked, that extra line in modprobe.d/alsa-base is there. That was the fix right?

That was part of the fix. The other part of the fix was updating to the current stable ALSA (1.0.14). That should have been done in the driver as well.

My problem might be wanting to use the "hot keys" to control the volume (Fn-F7/F8/F9) to control sound volume, no matter what it is coming out (speakers or headphones).

What is the correct way of controlling sound output in the Darter? When i plug in my headphones can I still turn up/down the volume from those Fn keys and not have sound come out my speakers? I'm confused because i thought it was working the way I want it to yesterday, but now today it isn't.
