Don't know why I didn't hink of this before. Those who aren't getting sound from their speakers, try headphones.
If your chip is being identified, it should be working at least somewhat.
Sound chips fillowing the Intel HDA spec will have at least 2 pairs of 2 channels (left and right) with independent volume controls. On most laptops, one will be the speakers and the other will be headphones. These will have separate controls in the mixer; make sure the mixer marked Speaker is turned up and unmuted (or if it is, make sure the one marked Headphone is turned up, perhaps they are mislabeled, which would be another bug altogether, but still mention it here).
I know, before the new kernel, my sound system would route to speakers until I plugged in headphones, then it would shut off the speakers. I believe this can be configured; I'll look into it when I return at about 15:00 EST. Now, they are controlled seperately and the Headphone channel was beign used as the Master. This can be changed in your mixer.
