Toshiba Satellite PRO A120: Laptop speakers not working

[reagan]

I installed a dual boot of Windows XP Professional and Ubuntu Feisty Fawn on my Toshiba Satellite PRO A120...
However, the laptop speakers didn't work initially... Only the headphones did...
However, adding the following line at the bottom of the alsa-base file in /etc/modprobe.d solved the problem...
options snd-hda-intel model=hippo
