Bug Description

I have an Asus A8N-VM (NVIDIA GeForce 6100 + nForce 410 chipset) with onboard audio (High Definition Audio, ADI AD1986A 5.1 channel). There is no sound after installation. I am running the AMD64 version of Ubuntu Dapper Drake testing (Flight 4 + updates). I have used both the amd64-generic and amd64-k8 kernels with the nolapic and noapic boot options but neither kernel resulted in the sound working. After I realized that the onboard sound is not working correctly, I put a PCI sound card in the same box and the second card works perfectly so I know that there is not a problem with the speakers or cable.

Is this symptom still valid with 6.06.1, Jonathon?
