options snd-hda-intel

In some cases, for the sound to work, it is necessary to add to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base a line containing:

options snd-hda-intel model=Q

where Q can be toshiba, asus etc. An option that might work is auto

To find the model, run

cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec

This is all described here
