Solved! It turns out the bug was caused by two codecs conflicting with
each other, or something like that. We got sound by adding the line

options snd-hda-intel probe_mask=1

to the file

/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base

This should of course have been done automatically by ALSA but since this 
particular computer is not a "known buggy" device, ALSA doesn't know about it. 
Here is a post about the issue:
