Bug Description

I dont get any sounds upon installing Feisty fresh. It has never worked, not in Dapper nor Edgy. It is an Intel ICH6 with a Realtek ALC880. If I go to the Sound Preferences, and click test on Sound Playback (set to Auto) I get the following error:

audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert !
audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Could not negotiate format

Not sure if this is to be considered a "workaround" or a "solution," but passing probe_mask=1 to the card in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base as described in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/114522 produces sound for me.
