I have the onboard card, used as the general listening device and a Lamba USB running Debian Sid.
Problem 1: Websites, i.e. U-Tube, stopped playing. I believe this is a 3.2 kernel problem, they played in 3.1. Anyone encountered this? Whose bug?
Software such as Timidity and VLC did play in 3.2.
Problem 2: Line input to the ALC861 not functioning. Could be hardware but these things usually do not die.
Problem 3: Jack will not start. Error is:
