For people who own this laptop and have issues with the audio, I've submitted a patch for review [1] to enable sound from the built-in speakers.
You will have also noticed that the 3.5mm headphone jack in this laptop ...does not exist! However, there is the Audio Expansion Card [2] which according to people who own it, works just fine. Please note that the expansion card is a _separate_ sound (USB, uaudio) card so you cannot get automatic speakers-to-headphones or built-in-mic-to-headset audio switching with it. That's because, again, the built-in speakers/mic, and the 3.5mm jack from the expansion card, are different sound cards altogether. Solutions to this that I can see are: - Plug an external amplifier to the 3.5mm jack and plug any headphones/mics/speakers there. Obviously, this is not practical if you use the laptop outside. - Switch between devices with mixer(8) on-demand. Note that hot-swapping (i.e., getting sound from the new device _during_ playback) won't work unless you use virtual_oss, until I commit the patch [3] to address this issue. Further explanation on this in mixer(8)'s man page sections for the -d and -v options.
