Thanks for this update Ben. I have an Acer Aspire 4520 which has nVidia HDA card with Realtek ALC268 codec. Installing linux-backports-modules-generic solved my sound problem.
Only thing is that I had to manually add this line at the bottom of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base to make the sound work:
options snd-hda-intel model=acer

Perhaps this line can be added automatically, for better user experience.

I'm hoping this will be included in the gutsy-updates, since it solves so many sound problems.
