Turns = out the guy can't read, and I've got an acer. It's talked about modprobe snd_intel_hda, and I've tried that as well as = using dashes instead of underline, to no affect for audio. unmuting = doesn't seem to have done anything, either. Any other ideas? as I said, I'm sort of shooting in the dark, as I have = no sound and thus, no speech.
