Comment 2 for bug 1019321

the soundcard was working for 11.10. But is no longer working with 12.04. Im using a beagleboard.
But I think this is a kernel issue not alsa.

the linaro kernel provided in the repositories does gets the soundcard working.
I'm now using 3.0.0-1007-linaro-omap and everything works regarding sound. Downside is that the linaro kernel has so many things disbled that bazilion other things does not work. Most notably there is no cifs/smbfs support

So if you only need the sondcard working you can use the linaro kernel until this gets fixed in the main omap kernels
