Bug#641198: linux-image-2.6.32: After yesterday's update including kernel update and firmware-linux update the sound doesn't work any more. Model: "Intel 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller"

Hi Ben,

I looked at the packages on my installation and found "pulseaudio". It was in 
synaptic in the section "installed (auto removable)". There are several packages 
in this section I still need for example cervisia.

I deinstalled pulseaudio see log:

Die folgenden Pakete wurden vollständig entfernt:
pulseaudio
pulseaudio-esound-compat
pulseaudio-module-x11
pulseaudio-utils

I shutdown the laptop and had a shower. After booting the sound is on again. KDE 
systemsettings sees HDA Intel (STAC92xx Analog), HDA Intel, NVIDIA HDMI (HDMI 
Audio Output), Jack Audio Connection Kit, ESound (ESD) The first is used. The 
settings in KMix are a bit different than before.

HTH 
Best Regards
