Alexander Fedora, the next step is to fully commit bisect the kernel in
order to identify the offending commit. Could you please do this
following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection ?

Title:
  [Lenovo ThinkPad X61s] Speaker volume mutes itself in random intervals
  after upgrade to 14.04

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I've upgraded from ubuntu 13.10 and sound stopped working properly. It works in general. But mutes itself for small period  of time in random intervals. I've looked at alsamixer and it shown what once in a while some of the parameters got to the lowest level and then returning to normal after some time. It is reproing on Speaker. But also Internal Mic Boost jumps from 100% to 0% and then back to 100%. 
  BTW, when sound mutes on speaker, headphones are still working. So looks like alsamixer reports volumes  correctly. I've also tried to purge pulseaudio and alsa-base packages and re-installing them again.

  But I was able to find workaround. Audio works just fine with old
  kernels. I've tried with 3.5.0-15 and 3.5.0-27. It works with both
  kernels. I've also tried newest kernel from next ubuntu version.
  3.15.0-031500rc5 - audio is not working in new kernel.
