My Aspire Laptop 5520-5679 has issues with both hda and OSS.

With hda I get no response from the builtin microphone or the =20
microphone jack and the mixer only shows playback controls.

With OSS and skype-devel I get "problem with audio playback" so I =20
haven't even checked the microphone yet.  Basically I only use it for =20
skype so it would seem that neither uses the mike and at least hda =20
does playback well. Youtube.com, as an example, that oss just locks up =20
firefox on playback.

The current configuration with OSS shows:

# kldstat

# ossrecord /root/test.wav gives me:
   /dev/dsp: Permission denied

osstest has errors that can be seen at:
   http://encontacto.net/SHARE/osstest.aspire.txt

ossinfo doesn't show the microphone, either.

If it can help the verbose dmesg can be seen at:
   http://encontacto.net/SHARE/ossinfo.aspire.txt

Help to get either working with my acer aspire would be appreciated.

I am running:
# uname -a
