Hi all,

I have an HP 6530b notebook with the following codecs:
<code>
$ egrep 'Codec:|Subsystem Id:' /proc/asound/card*/codec#*
/proc/asound/card0/codec#0:Codec: Analog Devices AD1984A
/proc/asound/card0/codec#0:Subsystem Id: 0x103c360d
/proc/asound/card0/codec#1:Codec: LSI ID 1040
/proc/asound/card0/codec#1:Subsystem Id: 0x103c1378
</code>

Like others, I had the problem of sound not coming out from the laptop speakers, but sound worked from the headphone jack. I'm running Jaunty with:

 kernel 2.6.28-14-generic
 alsa-base 10.0.18.dsfg-1ubuntu8
 alsa-utils 1.0.18-1ubuntu11

The solution I found that worked for me is much simpler than the fixes proposed in this thread; no special kernel, no recompiling of alsa sources, no download of special alsa package. Instead I followed the directions here:

I'm passing this along in hopes that it helps others too.
