Hi,

I believe there's still a problem with the HDA Intel chip Conexant
CX20551 (Waikiki) not working.
However, im not entirely sure the problem the problem is with alsa,
because it starts working when i boot with acpi=off (a fix suggested
on the ubuntu forums, but not quite useful on a laptop [plus, it
breaks my ethernet])

The reason I'm mailing is, can you confirm this is something alsa
can/should/will fix or are we all looking in the wrong direction and
this is really an acpi problem?

If you can fix this or know of something that might work, I would be
happy to hear it.
I've attached my lspci -nv and cat /proc/asound/card0/codec\#* just in
case. I would be happy to give you any more info you might need.
