On my hp dv6500t laptop, I have sound now with the backports-generic. However, the light on the keyboard that would normally turn red if muted does not - it stays blue. Also, pressing the mute button has no effect on the headphones. Pressing mute does mute the internal speakers. The volume control only controls the internal speakers. I have to set the volume and then plug in the headphones otherwise it plays through both. The microphone does not work at all.
