I discovered "sysctl dev.hdac.0.pindump=3D1"; here are the corresponding
pin dumps to go with:

g1-254(10.1-S)[24] cat /dev/sndstat=20
Installed devices:
pcm0: <NVIDIA (0x0042) (HDMI/DP 8ch)> (play)
pcm1: <NVIDIA (0x0042) (HDMI/DP 8ch)> (play)
pcm2: <Realtek (0x0292) (Analog 2.0+HP/2.0)> (play/rec) default
pcm3: <Realtek (0x0292) (Analog)> (play/rec)
g1-254(10.1-S)[25]=20

Maybe there's something I can do with those pin assignments to stop
the unwanted noise from going to the headphones (or anywhere else)...?
