Hi: Interesting. I've only seen the problem I described on this particular machine. I booted up the Talking Arch ISO inside the VM with the same sound configuration (auto detect) and Arch came up with working sound. I installed Debian testing on a physical machine earlier today and that system came also up talking after installation. Please let me know if I can provide something from the arch live image to get sound working on Debian. I indeed have sound working here now on Talking Arch. Debian is my favourite distro and I would love to get it running on this machine.
