I installed linux-backports-modules and rebooted. The sound volume was now at 100% and I was unable to decrease it nor change sound device from Preferences->Sound or the Sound Volume applet. I was however able to decrease it to 97% through the volume keys on the PC. Sound recorder would not open and complained something along these lines: "The sound recording settings are not correct. Please correct these in Multimedia and retry"
I removed linux-backports-modules and I'm now back to my old volume settings as well as being able to change the volume. The mic is of course still not working.
Should I try enabling gutsy-proposed and try with the packages in that repo? Is there any chance it will help?
