Hi, the problem is the same on Dell Precision M4300.
No audio is detected with Gutsy 32bits on 2.6.22-11-generic (can't remember how it was with Gutsy 64bits, i don't use it yet), or sometimes it is detected but no sound can be heard and only ONE "master" canal exists (this is not easily reproducible, most of the time no audio card is detected).
Downloading a recent alsa source, replacing alsa-source.tar.bz2 (from 'alsa-source' package) in /usr/src and recompiling "alsa" modules with "module-assistant" makes soundcard work great at next boot, and reliably (tested with 2.6.22-10-generic, 2.6.22-11-generic and 2.6.22-11-rt).
