Comment 13 for bug 269586

Last evening I have installed the current intrepid updates and I have compiled and installed the latest alsa sources (development versions
alsa-driver-1.0.18rc3, alsa-lib-1.0.18rc3, alsa-utils-1.0.18rc3). After that I have tried some alsa and kernel options again (kernel: noapic, noacpi; alsa options: model, probe_mask, single_cmd, position_fix). No option was working.

But with "options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1" set in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base (no other alsa option, no kernel option) I have success.
