I tried to find solution for you, but for some reason it is not as easy, please try the following.Edit the following file:/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.confFind the line starting with:options snd-hda-intelIf such line is missing, add it.Edit this line to contain model number of your laptop:options snd-hda-intel model=*******Where ******* replace with one of these:eeepc-ep20oreeepc-p701orautoSo that the line looks like e.g.:options snd-hda-intel model=autoReboot.
