Summary: No sound on hda-intel on Acer TravelMate 4061NLMi
Description:
This will be very much like other reports around.

Just bought a new laptop and installed Ubuntu Linux on it, and updated it.
Sound modules load silently, no complainments, alsamixer works and
channels are unmuted, but I get absolutely no sound from speakers of
headphones.

I'm not the only one having this issue
(http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=450628), however, all the info I
managed to google either didn't help me, or was simply unfinished (like
forum questions that aren't answered).

I tried the stock drivers provided by the Ubuntu kernel, then I tried
1.0.10rc2, and cvs builds i made myself (created them as .debs though). In
all cases the result was the same - absolute silence.

I've turned on Windows only one time before installing linux on my laptop
and I had system sound a te boot of the system, so the sound worked under
windows. I think too that it's a problem of activation of the card by the
driver. I will write to Realtek to expose them the problem.

Sorry to add more to the scream that it does not work. Same here, Acer
TravelMate 4061. Under windows fine. Same dmi output. ICH6 chipset, kernel
2.6.15-notfinal (that is, -10 ubuntu) and packed alsa drivers.
