I have been able to reproduce this issue on a Dell Latitude D630.

Alsa source compiled in using module assistant
alsa-modules-2.6.22-14-generic_1.0.14-1ubuntu2+2

Kernel 2.6.22-14-generic

lspci -vv info on the sound card:

Line added to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base:
options snd-hda-intel model=dell-m42

I also tried models auto, and 3stack with the same results.

This is in the gutsy release
