However hotplug loads snd* modules ?
I had this problem... booting with "pci=noacpi" works for me
(see http://www.softlab.ece.ntua.gr/~amanous/Inspiron-Linux/#kernel)
I tried your suggestion before heading off to work this morning and after a reboot the sound works as it did before, thanks! (As an aside: does this option hamper the suspend capabilities of the laptop?)
Thanks again,
MBG
