It might be difficult to bisect in 3.9 with a video issue.  We know the
issue was also introduced in a 3.8 stable update, so lets try bisecting
in that tree.  You confirmed 3.8.0-27 has the but, and it is based off
of upstream 3.8.13.3.  Can you test the following earlier upstream
kernels:

3.8.13.1:  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8.13.1-raring/
3.8.13.2:  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.8.13.2-raring/

  [INTEL DP55WG,Realtek ALC889] - Audio Playback Unavailable

Bug description:
  This is a fresh upgrade to raring. During the weekend, I updated from
  precise to quantal, and from there to raring. I did not use sound
  while the system was in quantal, so no idea if the bug was present
  there as well.

  The symptom is:

  * after some period of sound usage, playback stops working

  What I mean with sound usage is:

  I tried having a meeting with: mumble, skype, and google hangout, and
  in all three cases, audio input/outout will work just fine for ~5
  minutes, and the playback just dies (people tell me they keep
  listening to me, so mic works fine).

  The only way to solve this is by rebooting. After one of the reboots,
  I was able to play a 20 minute video with mplayer with no further
  issue. Then opened skype and after ~3-5 minute talk, audio playback
  died again.
