I was referred to this thread by one of the testers for the driver I have been developing (Conexant HD Audio support). I have been working on other Intel HD Audio Bus drivers as well (anything that uses snd-hda-intel). While I haven't been following the versions of alsa that are in each distribution, I do know there were some issues in earlier versions that have been fixed in 1.0.14 (currently at rc3).
One thing that would be beneficial is if people reporting issues included a link generated from http://bulletproof.servebeer.com/alsa/scripts/alsa-info.sh . This script was created by wishie in #alsa on irc.freenode.net, and has proven to be quite useful for debugging.
