hi David, your hda-analyzer solution works, but the ".fw" patch doesn't. I have a work-around:
1. download hda-verb-0.3.tar.gz from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/misc/hda-verb/ and compile it
2. add two lines in /etc/rc.local
                                /path/to/hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x1a 0x701 0
                                /path/to/hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x1b 0x701 0
3. reboot, and you can hear the sound from GDM

I admit this is ugly, but it makes sound work automatically.

Hopefully it is helpful when the ".fw" patch fails.
