try putting “options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1 model=3stack” (without quotes) at the end of “/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base”. You can also try other options that I gave before, like “options snd-hda-intel model=6stack” or “”options snd-hda-intel model=6stack”.

try these parameters, whichever suits you best:

6stack 6-jack, separate surrounds (default)
3stack 3-stack, shared surrounds
laptop 2-channel only (FSC V2060, Samsung M50)
laptop-eapd 2-channel with EAPD (Samsung R65, ASUS A6J)
laptop-automute 2-channel with EAPD and HP-automute (Lenovo N100)
ultra 2-channel with EAPD (Samsung Ultra tablet PC)

hope this helps!
