Re: what if `alsactl init' doesn't configure sound?
Hello
Sweet, sound works. Thank you a lot for your suggestions. I managed to
get it working with a custom version of the "sound" file you posted.
If curious, read below. Now I can switch to addressing the other
breakages from the upgrade.

This is what I have, the first quite similar to yours.
liviu@debian-liv:~$ cat /proc/asound/card*/codec* | grep Codec
Codec: IDT 92HD71B7X
Codec: ATI RS690/780 HDMI

I looked for "IDT 92HD71B7X" and found this thread [1], with a sound
card also on an HP Pavilion (dv3/4) containing a lot of debug messages
but no solutions. I also found this [2] one which suggested to use
model=hp-m4 and enable_msi=1. Although I use them both, it seems that
the latter did the trick. It's some story of missing interrupts from
the codec.

This is the file that works here:
debian-liv:/home/liviu# cat /etc/modprobe.d/sound
## ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio
## module options should go here
#ex. options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=dell-m6,ref,auto
#options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=ref enable_msi=1
options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=hp-dv5 enable_msi=1
options snd-usb-audio index=1
Also, should someone use this thread below are some more debug messages:
