I have a strange problem with my sound card since the last 2 kernel upgrades. I did an upgrade from gutsy to hardy about two weeks after the hardy release and the sound worked until the last two kernel upgrades. It seems like the problem started after upgrading from linux-image-generic 2.6.24.17.19 to linux-image-generic_2.6.24.18.20.
At first I had no sound and tried all the tips&tricks I found on the internet without success. After another reboot today I had sound, but with a strange noise in the background. After a couple of minutes a very loud sound came out of the speakers, which didn't stop. This very loud sound starts now immediately on boot when snd-hda-intel gets loaded. The only solution to that problem was to mount the partition and remove snd- hda-intel.ko so it doesn't get loaded. My soundcard is recognized correctly and shows up in "aplay -l". I can open the alsamixer application and adjust the volume without any problems. Rebuilding the alsa driver and adding the correct model parameters to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base didn't solve the problem. There aren't any errors in the log files about the sound drivers.
