I've the same problem with a Medion MD95257 powered by the new Centrino Sonoma
architecture.

Hotplug freeze during boot on the snd-hda-intel. I've rebuilt the driver 1.0.9a
(and even a more recent I've got there :

With both the problem of freeze is solved, the soundcard is detected, I can
setup it with alsamixer or the Gnome applet. But I've got no sound. I've put the
volume to the max, unmutted the channels but no way there is no sound.

I've tried both with the alsa Hoary backports and by keeping your more recent
packages for it.

On Ubuntu 5.04, I didn't have a crash with hotplug but no sound. I've recompiled
such a driver for snd-hda-intel but didn't upgrade the backport packages for Hoary.

I had to put a stuff like that somewhere (I think it's in /etc/modprobe.d/aliases) :

alias char-major-116 snd
options snd major=116 cards_limit=1
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel index=0 id="HDA"
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss

And 5.04, it work.

On other distros as SuSE 9.3, it was the same. After recompiling the driver and
adding thoose lines (without it, it didn't work), it was ok.

I've add thoose line on /etc/modprobe.d/aliases on Breezy RC1 but I've
unfortunately still got no sound :o(

If you need more info or tests from me, don't hesitate, I would like to switch
back from SuSE 9.3 to Ubuntu again as it kicks ass and is Debian based ;o)
