Solved for my motherboard 4Coredual-sata2 adding the next lines to
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

# Solucion para ALC888 de 4Coredual-sata2
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel model=6stack-dig position_fix=0 single_cmd=1

Now there is not "spurious response..." in dmesg and the sound is always 
starting right.
I am using Ubuntu Precise 12.04. No compiled alsa, just the original from 
ubuntu.
Greetings.

Title:
  Sound goes off when "Sound preferences" window opened.

Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: pulseaudio

  I'm using ubuntu 10.04. The system is up to date. The machine is HP
  mini note 2133.

  When I open the sound preferences window, the sounds go off. It's not
  sudden. Sometimes when I move between tabs. Sometimes it takes some
  times. Just moving between tabs is enough.

  Once it crashes I can't see the whole sound preferences window becomes
  inactive. Indicator applet shows a speaker with 3 hyphen signs.

  I can reactivate this by running pulseaudio --kill

  While crashed
  chanux@nim:~$ ps aux |grep pulseaudio
  chanux    5940  0.0  0.1 101392  3588 ?        S<sl 17:50   0:00 
/usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog
  chanux    5945  0.0  0.1  10748  2968 ?        S    17:50   0:00 
/usr/lib/pulseaudio/pulse/gconf-helper

  After running pulseaudio --kill

  chanux@nim:~$ ps aux |grep pulseaudio
  chanux    6047  6.7  0.2  94264  4812 ?        S<sl 18:09   0:00 
/usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog
  chanux    6052  0.3  0.1  10748  2968 ?        S    18:09   0:00 
/usr/lib/pulseaudio/pulse/gconf-helper 

  Apparently it restarts pulseaudio. Anyhow it fixes things until I try
  to change sound preference :P.

  And also

  chanux@nim:~$ dmesg | tail
  [34050.023308] hda-intel: spurious response 0x0:0x0, last cmd=0x171500

  [34050.023486] hda-intel: spurious response 0x0:0x0, last cmd=0x171500

  A google search about this  "spurious response" thing lead me to a
  problem about alsa.

  chanux@nim:~$ cat /proc/asound/version
  Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.21.

  And some pages recommend to compile the latest alsa (1.0.23.) which I
  can't do right now.

  Hope these info is helpful.
