tasmarc, what do you mean with "solved"? In fact I do have sound since May, but
it is not perfect yet: the system beeps while shutting down, and the volume is
too sensible to the volume bar (system nearly silent with volume up to 50%,
suddensly lound over 60%), and, third, if I leave volume over
The alsa-based trick worked for me too, but simply rebooting I heard the system
startup sound, and all sounds (system and music) were automatically enabled.
Great!
In fact my installation is fresh, and I added no pulse nor other
software: simply addede that line.
