Many thanks to andrei1998, got sound working!! even with kubuntu 16.04 LTS.
Did a clean install, the distro ships with kernel 4.8, the first issue was that keyboard was not working at all, had to use an external usb keyboard to do everything necessary. Second I installed a mainline kernel, 4.10 using ukuu (great app!) which got the keyboard and touchpad both working (but still no sound :/). Next with the kernel 4.10 installed, followed the steps outlined on github, got sound + micro sd card reader working!!
