Public bug reported:

I upgraded my Toshiba A15-S157 to Feisty this afternoon, and had a very
good experience compared to my upgrade from 6.06 to 6.10.  The only
problem I had was a lack of sound.

Any program that tried to output sound had no problem telling me it was
outputting sound.  For instance, XMMS was running as though there was
sound coming out of the speakers or the jack, but neither was true.  It
was playing and the visualization was running, but no sound was actually
being output.

Upon a tip from another bug report I found that was unrelated to this
specific issue, I played around with the /etc/init.d/alsa-utils command.
Nothing seemed to work until I ran this:

sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils reset

And all of a sudden sound blared at me in a normal fashion.  Attempting
to use the restart command did not resolve the sound issue, but reset
did.  I fear I may have to use this command at every bootup in order to
hear sound, though I have yet to reboot and test.
