I should have commented on this bug that the 'solution' I entered
didn't actually work. Part of the problem with testing this is that
the sound drops out after an indeterminate time interval - so to
clarify, it's still broken and I've resorted to using Ubuntu instead.

The solution that appears to be working is:
Create a file /etc/modprobe.d/my-soundcard and put this in it:
options snd-hda-intel model=dell-3stack
Reboot, should be fine.

I have ESD installed, but it isn't running. I always make sure it is
turned off (in Sound Preferences) and try to ensure only alsa is being
used (PulseAudio doesn't work on this machine).
When the problem is evident, I try to find processes that might be
using the sound card like this:
sudo lsof |
After some further investigation, it seems that the sound only
disappears when using gnome. Using Fluxbox avoids the problem.
Starting gnome-settings-daemon destroys sound again. I can't work out
what exactly gnome is doing to mess it up, but it's definitely the
culprit.

determine a pattern to this - which program(s) might be messing wi
