Does your PC have a ALC861/660 or Conexant 5066 or ALC880 ? If not, then you could have applied the WRONG option !
plus there are many other model options available for asus hardware dependent on the hardware audio codec. One MUST know the hardware audio codec, plus alsa version, kernel version, etc to provide a good recommendation.
