I had this kind of problem with an older kernel (.18), which wasn't able
to guess the appropriate driver for the card. By diffing .18 and .21, I
was able to find the appropriate model name (3stack in my case).
(To be put under /etc/modprobe.d, in a file containing e.g.:
"options snd-hda-intel model=3stack")

> Kernel: Linux 2.6.21-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores)

Since you already have .21, maybe it could be worth a try to check
whether your card is correctly recognized by it, and that you don't
have to specify the appropriate modelname.


I'm aware it probably won't address your problem, but well one never
knows...

Cheers,
