Comment 67 for bug 783582

I think I'm no longer the best test subject, as I speedily had to
upgrade to a oneiric kernel (ubuntu rc4) to have stable wifi before
leaving for vacation (I'm literally testing this while lying beside the
pool).

But on that kernel, I tested anyway, and it does not seem to make a
difference. I still have to resort to manually setting the EAPD pin with
the hda_analyzer tool before I get any sound.

Thanks,

Marius K.
