Hi Raymond, thank you for the suggestions of things to try. 
Also thanks for the tip re David Henningsson's ppa and his hdajackretask:

$sudo add-apt-repository ppa:diwic/hda
$sudo apt-get update

[This is up to 14.04 Trusty but seemed to work well enough on 16.04
Xenial Final Beta]

Played around with it (If one makes a mistake, one can press 'Remove boot 
override' button, shut down computer, wait a little,
then power back on - should be back to where you started.

Still - the only sound is the MONO SOUND from the 0x15 at the back
/* LINE-2 is used for line-out in rear */
- {0x15, AC_VERB_SET_PIN_WIDGET_CONTROL, PIN_OUT}.

I don't know enough at this stage to recompile kernel etc in the effort to 
re-introduce the 'Alc260 basic model' back in again?
I will leave it at this time, but obviously if you happen to know of any 
changes in this situation - would be glad to hear it.
Also if you / anyone else happen to hear of more things to try - please let me 
know - will attempt to try them out.
Again, thank you for the help so far.
