As well, Pulse still doesn't work on my Alienware laptop. Realtek chipset, hda_intel picks it up as being generic. things almost work, except headphones. PA will only let sound go through the front speakers, while ALSA just has a switch. Its a known WONTFIX bug, too.
This bug is even worse for me: the only output that PA will recognize on my system is the HDMI output from my *video* card! I don't have any HDMI capable peripheral to even try to hear it! Alsa outputs to my true sound card without any problem...

did you try manual driver loading? in /etc/pulse/default.pa: ### Load audio drivers statically (it's probably better to not load ### these drivers manually, but instead use module-hal-detect -- ### see below -- for doing this automatically) load-module module-alsa-sink load-module module-alsa-source device=hw:1,0 #load-module module-oss device="/dev/dsp" sink_name=output source_name=input #load-module module-oss-mmap device="/dev/dsp" sink_name=output source_name=input #load-module module-null-sink #load-module module-pipe-sink ### Automatically load driver modules depending on the hardware available #.ifexists module-udev-detect.so #load-module module-udev-detect #.else ### Alternatively use the static hardware detection module (for systems that ### lack udev support) #load-module module-detect #.endif
