I' ve a problem.
If I start Lubuntu 14:04, with main power supply, normal sound from the headphones and no sound from speakers.
Everything is enabled both on alsamixer and pavucontro.
I turn off the laptop and boot from a USB key with Live VectorLinux.
Perfect sound from the speakers
I turn off the laptop, I remove the key, I start again Lubuntu and I' ve perfect sound from the speakers.
Then I restart again, always with the main power supply and sound always perfect.
I turn it off,I take off the main power supply and I restart Lubuntu using the battery and ... no sound from the speakers,from the headphones only.
I repeat the cycle from the start and I always get the same result.
In addition to an exorcism, what can I do? 
Best regards.

Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After updating my system to Ubuntu Trusty Tahr (development branch) Release:  14.04
  my soundcard VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8237A/VT8251 HDA Controller is not working anymore on the newer kernel (3.12).
  After booting an older kernel  (3.2) the card is working.

  Already tried various options in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf, 
  e.g. options snd-hda-intel probe_mask=1 model=3stack-dig but without success
