Hi Tukka,

what distro are you using? If you're on a ubuntu based, try the 
alsa-hda-dkms package. Then you do need to edit the 
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf and add the *snd-hda-intel 
model=auto***at the end of the file. Hda-jack-retask is a last resort 
solution to remap the pins if none of the recommended solutions work.
Also keep in mind that if you are using a headset that you must select 
the right microphone. I'm assuming that you don't have a split cable 
headset but one that has the single mini-jack with the three back 
stripes. Make sure that you have selected that one in alsamixer or 
whatever gui.

regards,
Anestis
