Zongo, I owe you a drink of whatever it is you drink. Works for me on a
Conexant CX20583 (Pebble)
HP G60-530US Notebook

Thank you... thank you... thank you! I'm now listening to my playlist
via the headphones. Unplug the headphones & notebook speakers work.

Where did you find the 'snd-hda-intel model="olpc-xo-1_5"' info? I've
been searching everywhere & tried just about every model type that I
came across.

Note: I did notice a side effect however; internal microphone seems to
be no longer working. On this system I had to install
linux-backports-modules-alsa to get the mic working properly & after
modifying etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf the internal mic is no longer
working. Sigh... that's OK - one problem at a time :-)
