Thank you for searching before you post
The standard solution is unfortunately what I have up my sleeve in the first (and second and third... ) round
The thing is that model sometimes have to be set to something seemingly odd
Look at the topic in the Ubuntu forum linked to in that standard solution
One of the "-stack-" models may do it
You get
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: STAC92xx Analog [STAC92xx Analog]
Not the Digital? - that's what you normally find

This should work for you:
Building OSS from source
Basically, it'll compile a stable release of OSS into your kernel, which will take over ALSA, and should work with your sound card.

I would recommend using this download, and follow the guide starting from "Change to the source directory." Restart when you're all done and you should be good to go.

Go slow - your health is much more important than a computer
And I hope you recover
