[ALSA] hda-intel - Add workarounds for STAC codecs
Some machines with STAC codecs seem to have problems (e.g. no audible playback) when the delay in codec-read routine is too short. I still don't figure out which command sequence causes this problem (due to lack of test hardware), but it's known that increasing the delay fixes. So, added a stupid workaround here temporarily...
