Bug description:
  [WORKAROUND] Run the following command:

  echo "options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1" | sudo tee -a
  /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

  [EDIT]
  Workaround doesn't work anymore for me at least. I assume it only has a small possibility of working due to a firmware bug.

  [ORIGINAL REPORT]
  No sound, no jacks; It is detected by Linux however.
