My system (a Gateway M685-E laptop) has the opposite problem: Audio works fine in Vista, though only when the external output is plugged in, but in Linux the sound chip (SigmaTel STAC9250) does NOT work. ALSA finds the snd_hda_intel, and I can play things to it, but no sound comes out. Also, the mixer lists no inputs at all.
