I have an acer aspire 5930g, after a clean install of Karmic 64bit the
sound works perfectly except the tuba bass. The problem is that alsa
picks the option model=acer-aspire-4930g by default for this laptop,
whereas I found that model=acer-aspire-6530g fits much better. With the
latter option everything works, including the tuba bass, and all the
built-in speakers get muted automatically upon headphones plug-in. Also
the sound quality is very good.

>From the changelog between alsa 1.0.20 to 1.0.21 (in Karmic backports)
we can read: " - ALSA: hda - Use model=acer-aspire-6530g for Acer Aspire
6930 For Acer Aspire 6930G (1025:015e), acre-aspire-6530g model matches
obviously better" .

I believe also 5930g should be moved over like 6930g.

The only thing I'm not 100% positive about is the built-in mic, I've had
no time to play with settings and volumes yet and for now it seems to
only produce noise for me; if I manage to get it to work I definitely
write to the alsa developers to suggest the move of the 5930g from 4930g
settings to 6530g.
