Simply paste them at the end of /etc/modules.d/alsa-base.conf and save it.
options snd slots=snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel model=hp-m4
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1
Restart the computer and you should get sound out of the speakers as well as the headphone socket.

VERY IMPORTANT!!!
There is a typo in this solution.
Code:
/etc/modules.d/alsa-base.conf
Thats wrong.
The correct place is
Code:
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
So basically upgrading to the latest alsa and adding the above four lines to the correct file will make the speakers work.
I've had a few rough hours until I found the typo, but many thanks to drbongo for helping us Linux newbies with our problems.
