snd-intel-hda requires options to work on AD1986A

[mc44]

Sound muted on AD1986A using intel hda module unless the options "options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1 model=3stack" are used.

Below are the contents of lspci and "options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1 model=3stack"

Not sure if I am experiencing the same bug but.
IBM/Lenovo Thinkpad R60e
Sound volume on Edgy is very low ensuring the master volume slider and the keyboard buttons are at maximum the sound volume is barely audible, yet the same machine booted with dapper has more than adequate sound.

Care to try installing the 'linux-backports-modules' package if you're running Gutsy. It has an updated version of ALSA which may help.

Also, the Hardy Heron Alpha series was recently released which contains an updated version of the kernel. You can download and try the new Hardy Heron Alpha release from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/hardy/ . You should be able to then test the new kernel via the LiveCD. If you can, please verify if this bug still exists or not and report back your results. General information regarding the release can also be found here: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks.
