Try adding the following line to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf :
options snd-hda-intel model=hp-dv5

[Gareth Lawson (winterfox)]

Ok, tried adding the line and it wouldn't allow me to save or replace the file with that bit of extra code. No request for password, simply "Permission Denied"

ideas?

[Daniel Letzeisen (dtl131)]

gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

Thank-you very much, working just fine now!
