          product: VT8237A/VT8251 HDA Controller
          vendor: VIA Technologies, Inc.

though i get

hda-intel: spurious response 0x0:0x0, last cmd=0x835000

on boot.

i was able to get the sound back by doing
sudo alsareload -c
sound then works on reboot but when i shut down computer and turn it back up the issue remains (no sound).
i am not sure if the user that reported this bug has the same card, but the command might be worth a try.
