Sound not working on nvidia asrock board

[Martin Wildam]

I cannot get the sound to work on this nvidia asrock n68c-gs ucc board (webplanet) on Ubuntu 12.04.
It worked out-of-the-box in 10.04 - so this is a regression bug.

I already checked alsamixer.

Front micro seems to work (level is moving when I speak).

Installing Windows on the same machine has working sound so hardware defect can be excluded.
