I'm on 10.10, occasionally my sound would cut out and require a restart which was never a huge problem. First I had no headphone sound, I messed around with about 10 different solutions other people had and now I have no sound after uninstalling/reinstalling alsa completely.

I've tried adding "options snd-hda-intel model=sony position_fix=0" to the end of my /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf with no change at all, so I removed that again.


Here's my lshw -c sound:
