Hi

I have a Dell D830, with F10 fully up-to-date. The kernel update of two 
days ago (2.6.27.9-159.fc10) has broken audio on this machine.

If I reboot on the previous kernel, 2.6.27.7-134.fc10, audio works like a 
charm. With the new kernel everything works with no error message, however 
no sound is output, like the volume is muted or set to very low values.
I have checked all volume sliders, both for pulseaudio and alsa and all of 
them are at maximum and unmuted. I am using the PAE kernel if that 
matters.

The audio driver is snd-hda-intel, and the output of lspci -v reads:

00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 02)
          Subsystem: Dell Device 01fe
         Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 21
         Memory at f6ffc000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
         Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2
         Capabilities: [60] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit+ Count=1/1 Enable-
         Capabilities: [70] Express Root Complex Integrated Endpoint, MSI 00
         Capabilities: [100] Virtual Channel <?>
         Capabilities: [130] Root Complex Link <?>
         Kernel driver in use: HDA Intel
         Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel

Is anybody else having the same problem?

                             Thanks
