Yes, however some fixes that were mentioned were:

1.
Code:

sudo rmmod snd-hda-intel
sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel probe_mask=8 model=auto

if it works:

make it permanent by adding "options snd-hda-intel probe_mask=8
model=auto" at the end of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base

2.
options snd-hda-intel probe_mask=8 model=3stack

3.
1. Edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
2. Add this option to the adequate entry: acpi=ht
3. Reboot

You might look in your /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base file and see if the
options snd-hda-intel probe_mask=8 model=xyz has been set to anything.
If not give auto or 3stack a try.
