No, I don't pass any model parameter, partly because I didn't know about this parm until recently, and partly because I'm not sure what the correct value should be. ("head -n 1 /proc/asound/card0/codec#0" says "IDT 92HD71B7X", but I'm not sure where to go to look up the model number from that.)
hda-intel, like the infamous ac97, is a widely-used codec, and the kernel module supports a whole lot of different devices. I don't have a lot of time to check right now, but a quick grep on the sources shows your card's support is included in sound/pci/hda/patch_sigmatel.c. From a quick search, the list of possible options can be found here: http://free-electrons.com/kerneldoc/latest/sound/alsa/ALSA-Configuration.txt and your best bet could be dell-m44 (similar to 4400, but marked as Inspiron) or dell-m43 (near to 44 but marked as Precision).

Hmmm .... IDT 92HD71B7X actually sounds like it matches more closely to one of these: STAC92HD71B* ref Reference board dell-m4-1 Dell desktops dell-m4-2 Dell desktops dell-m4-3 Dell desktops I'll check them out - thanks. DR
