I'm using Intrepid (current as of oct. 10, 2008) with 2.6.27-6 and this
problem exists currently.  It seems the OSS device is working but the
ALSA device is not.  When I go to Gnome Sound Preferences and choose:

HDA Intell ALC262 Analog (ALSA)

and then Test I get:

audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample !
gconfaudiosink: Could not open audio device for playback.

If I choose:

HDA Intell ALC262 Analog (OSS)

It works (assuming nothing else is using the sound device considering
OSSes lame lack of ability to allow multiple opens).

Having to use the OSS device sucks rocks though, for the exact reason
above.

As for detail on my hardware:

$ lspci | grep Audio
