I had to realize that the microphone is not working using 2.6.21.6 + HG-Alsa (still middle of October), although the mic is fine with SUSE-10.3 (2.6.22.12-0.1). However, I upgraded to (1) kernel 2.6.23.1 and (2) NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-100.14.19-pkg2.run (older binaries don't compile anymore). Now, both sound and microphone work. Applying patches or code from HG is not required anymore. I can use either the internal loudspeakers/microphone or an headset connected to speaker-out jack and mic-In jack. Other remarks: Making skype calls together with video works.
