Hi Raymond, thank you for your reply. I just tried different models and stayed with dell-BIOS as it was the last one I've tried - no visible difference to me. Shall I use rather different model or remove that option at all?
Regarding alsa driver, what would be the best source for the driver? Shall I use oem-audio-hda-daily-dkms package from ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev /alsa-daily? Thank you a lot for confirmation.
