I've been digging further trying to get sound working on the Sony Vaio PCG-61A14L with its Intel sound chip(s).
Found a Slackware page that suggested adding /etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel.conf with an option of model=auto. That did not fix the problem. Neither did changing the model to vaio. Next on the page were instructions on checking /proc/sound/ for the installed codecs; that revealed two of them: Conextant GXZ0590 and Intel CougarPoint HDMI. A search of the source code document directory file for the snd-hda-intel Codecs did not find either of these. A DuckDuckGo search for the make, model, and 'snd-hda-intel' found a number of hits referring to ubuntu and CentOS. Tried a couple of their reported solutions, but to no avail. A related search for make, model, distribution and 'no sound' returned a few hits on the make and model but that's all. When I try to play a test .mp3 the system tells me no driver is found. I'm confident that we have sufficient hardware, Intel, and driver module expertise on the list here to help me figure out what to do next. If more information would be helpful I'll get it.
