I had the same problem (also running on a Dell Studio 16 XPS - 1645). I fixed it by adding the following line to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf, then rebooting

options snd-hda-intel model=dell-m6-dmic

People with other Dell Studio models, eg 1435, reported success with:

options snd-hda-intel model=6stack-dell
