Bug Description

Binary package hint: linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.22-10-generic

I need to load my sound card (AD1988B, module snd-hda-intel, on an asus MB) with the option model=6stack-dig in order for alsa to access all the mixer settings. By default I only get a volume and pcm settings, no microphone, CD...

The module used to be included in linux-image-generic, up until 2.6.22-9 included and the model option was working.

From kernel 2.6.22-10 on, the module has been separated in linux-ubuntu-modules and the option is not working : whatever model is chosen, I only get the minimal two mixer settings available.

Btw, the 2.6.22-9 module loads fine manually (with insmod) in a 2.6.22-10 kernel.

I'd be happy to provide any lspci, whatever debug log needed.

I've experienced the exact same issue, but on my Dell XPS M1210 laptop with a Sigmatel chip instead of AD.
I only see two volume controls, and the speakers do not work. The laptop also has two headphone jacks, only one of them worked before this update, and now i can only get sound out of the other one.

If you need any info from commands please see bug #129722 (note that these are from a previous version of snd-hda-intel).

if you still have the 2.6.22-9 modules, you can try to load it (after unloading the default one) with the correct "model=" option. I fhink 3stack is a good starting point.
