HDA Intel is a generic name for the type of card, sort of like tissue
is generic, whereas Kleenex says it is manufactured by a specific
corp.  aplay -lv will tell you that corp name and model, and the alsa
driver name.

If you type, in a console, aplay some.wav , do you hear sound?
You have to replace some.wav with an actual wav file, but this sends
sound directly to alsa, and should work on both your machines.

 So alsa is recognizing your card but PA isn't able to use it. Do you
 have alsa-plugins-pulseaudio installed. That sets alsa to use PA as its
dafault output mode.   

You could try reinstalling PA to see if it will correct the sound
configuration (or uninstalling and then installing again).

Beyond that, you need someone knowledgeable in PA, and that isn't me.
