I had major audio difficulties as well on an HP Mini 1199 ("Vivienne Tan" model), using Ubuntu 9.04. After installing Mauricio's (comment #62) ALSA 1.0.19 drivers + config changes, I only got audio on my headset.

I guessed "If upgrading to ALSA 1.0.19 makes a difference... then what would happen if I upgrade to 1.0.20?". After all, Maurico wrote his note in Apr/09 when v 1.0.20 was not yet available. Another guy explained how to install 1.0.20 (see http://monespaceperso.org/blog-en/2009/05/09/upgrade-alsa-1020-on-ubuntu-jaunty-904/), and... everything WORKS! Straight out of the box. No need to change audio settings. From speakers + headset. And Skype works straightaway.

So Maurizo was right, and time caught up with him. And I have a very happy member of the house using her new HP Mini.
