I have changed suspend/resume sequences a bit. Now I am doing more 
complete codec power up on resume. On my system I am able to call 
suspend() and then 15 seconds later resume() call successfully restores 
the sound after complete HDA controller, bus and codecs.

If you still have a problem - try to reproduce my experiment using 
temporal hack in a last version:
sysctl dev.hdac.0.pindump=100  <= hdac_suspend()
sysctl dev.hdac.0.pindump=101  <= hdac_resume()

Also I have made suspend() to left HDA bus in reset state which saves 
about 200mW of power according to my laptop battery stats.
