Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: alsa-base

Hello, 
 I have recently experienced a common bug on a new HP Pavilion, specifically 
concerning sound. In this bug, one would turn the computer on, and no sound 
will come out at all, even though both hardware and driver was detected. 
Through the infinite wisdom of the experienced people who saw my question in 
the Launchpad Answers section, I have found the correct solution to to this 
problem, specifically; 

Opening /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base

and adding these lines

# Keep snd-pcsp from beeing loaded as first soundcard
options snd-pcsp index=-2
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel model=dell-m4-1
options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1

Even though I am using Ubuntu 8.10, this is a common bug found in multiple 
distros. 
Alsa-base version 1.0.17 by the way.
Is there anyway to fix this bug in a patch or update, so people who buy 
Pavilions will automatically be able to use sound on Ubuntu without trawling 
the internet, looking for a fix like I have? If there is a fix eminent, then I 
apologise in advance for wasting your time. Thank you for taking the time to 
see this.
