    Hi Andrew,

    Thanks for the response.

    I found a better solution to my problem with my HP N5430 laptop over on
    the alsa-devel list, my sound had quit working also. The new
    solution, which was pointed out to me by Henry Yuan was to boot with
    lapic. I had noticed in the dmesg output that a lapic existed but was
    turned off by the bios, and a pseudo local apic was being used, this
    caused problems with APCI and my sound.

    If you would still like the dmesg I would be glad to send it.

    Steve
