as i said, look at the code for intel audio driver that you are using and see the spaghetti to support every bogus implementations. mine works until it tries to handle the audio channels for the HDMI, then it sometimes route audio there instead of the speakers. and my point is that, under ubuntu with gnome3/unity, they took care to test this machine (most sold win8 ultra portable) and made it work around those bodus audio channels on the gnome mixer. using xfce gives me silence everytime i plug and unplug a headphone (have to fiddle with alsamixer, or use gnome3/unity's mixer which will not work on my setup) i don't even know what we were discussing :)
