Hi Lars. I've done a bit more googling for your model of notebook, and seen a 
few posts saying it's using ALC268, and by installing the latest alsa driver, 
at least one person had got sound working.

Would you post the output of.
cat /proc/asound/card0/codec*
Just to verify that yours is using an ALC278. It's possible that as your 
notebook is very new that Acer have changed the codec on the mobo again.

Also the output of.
cat /proc/asound/version
And the OS you are using, and latest kernel you have.

I see that the alsa driver 1.0.15 is just about to be released as stable, but 
IIRC it is for kernel 2.6.23. I may have misread that though. 1.0.15 does 
have patches for realtek codecs though.

Don't trim any of the previous stuff, as this is a bit of extra info.

Nigel.

btw. The output of amixer wouldn't do any harm, and will show what mixer 
controls you have.
