After installing linux-backports-modules (no custom alsa compiling):
- a sound playback is not resumed after wake up from a suspend - I must rerun Totem/Rhytmbox/whatever to get sound again
- gnome-volume-control is a bit weird - to get sensible behavior I have maxed 'Main' and 'Front' sliders and use 'PCM' for volume adjusting
- switching between internal speakers and the headphones is ok, although there is not separate 'Headphone' slider in gvc
- multimedia keys (VolumeUp/VolumeDown/Mute') are working although the sound is muted before the 'PCM' slider reaches minimum position
I've played a bit with /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base in hope of getting the 'Headphone' slider. I could not achieve anything, so I've removed a custom entry from this file.
Everything above on Dell Latitude D830 with SigmaTel STAC9205.
