Bug Description

Hey Bug-Team, I installed Maverick 10.10 about 2 days ago, and I'm running it on an Acer Aspire 7736ZG with a Realtek ALC888 in it. Linux recognizes the card, I can switch the volume in ALSA Mixer and mute/un-mute it, but no matter if Headphones are plugged in or not, there's no sound. Not from the integrated speakers nor from the headphones.
I also tried the fix from another Bug here (install some packages), but that doesnt work for me.
I really like the OS, it's much faster than Win7 and I really want to work with it, but w/o sound it's only half as good as it could be.
I also did a alsa-info check, will post it here.
Hope you guys can help me.
Kind regards,
Christopher from Germany

Why are you using the "model=acer-aspire" quirk?

Once this "model=acer-aspire" row has been removed, this is very likely a duplicate of bug #617647
