[Bug 69620] Issues with sound on intel-hda in Edgy (2.6.17)

[sog]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-generic

The intel-hda driver appears to have significant issues in both Dapper
and Edgy. To be more specific, this is a good description of what I'm
experiencing (taken from the thread here
(http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0609.3/0467.html)):

"I have a ThinkPad X60 which uses the Intel 82801G HDA audio chip. This
used to work for me, but lately (sometime during 2.6.18-rcX series) it
stopped working - programs trying to use it tend to just block forever
waiting for /dev/dsp.

The only obvious symptom is:

hda_intel: azx_get_response timeout, switching to single_cmd mode...

appearing in the kernel log when booting."

It's particularly bad post-suspend, but occurs intermittently otherwise.
I'm also on an X60s. See confirmation from another Ubuntu user here
(http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=156146&highlight=hda_intel%3A+azx_get_response).
