cat /proc/asound/version
cat /proc/asound/card0/codec*
These will give us more information to go on.
It's also possible that a newer version of alsa will fix your problems. Try downloading alsa-driver-1.0.14rc1.tar.bz2 from the alsa-progject.org web site.

Hi list.
A friend of mine has an Acer 5100 Laptop which
has a hda-intel driver sound card. He cannot start
alsamixer, it errors out with:
alsamixer: function snd_mixer_load failed: Invalid argument
When the alsa-packages are reinstalled in Kubuntu, the
alsamixer works, but after a reboot it does not anymore.
The mic input is muted, or volume set to zero. The output
works though, but no levels can be adjusted due to the
alsamixer error.
We've tried with:
options snd_hda_intel model=acer position_fix=1
in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base but that does not fix the
problem.
I haven't got enough knowledge about ALSA to take
this further, so I put my hope to you guys. Below are
some outputs that might be useful:
# cat /proc/asound/cards

Hope this pins down the matter in some respect. :)
