Hmm, that all seems to be OK as far as I can tell.

I remember a while ago somebody had problems with sound and it turned
out that they had to mute the headphones output before they would get
anything on the normal speaker output. I do not recall anymore if that
was in fact related to an Intel card or not, but it is a quick thing to
try.

By the way, how did you test the sound, with a basic command like
"speaker-test" or with some more advanced program?
