Well I just got a Sony Vaio VPCEB15FM and I have the same problem of the card being detected but no sound from the speakers or headphone jack. I tried the module option but none of them fixed my issue.
$ aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC269 Analog [ALC269 Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 3: INTEL HDMI 0 [INTEL HDMI 0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 7: INTEL HDMI 1 [INTEL HDMI 1] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 There is this tool that lets you flip settings around but the changes aren't persistant: http://www.alsa- project.org/main/index.php/HDA_Analyzer To get my speakers working, I ran the hda_analyzer above and under "Node[0x19]" at the bottom in a pane called "Widget Control", I flipped the VREF to "HIZ" and that did the trick. Because I'm impatient, I flipped this value in the kernel source tree I'm using (stable 2.6.33.2): <KERNPATH>/sound/pci/hda/patch_realtek.c 13479c13479 < {0x19, AC_VERB_SET_PIN_WIDGET_CONTROL, PIN_VREF80}, --- > {0x19, AC_VERB_SET_PIN_WIDGET_CONTROL, PIN_IN}, Recompiled and it's persistent. This is just informational and is by no means a official solution, so use it at your own risk, I just wanted to get this out of the way so I can get on to using my laptop.
