I recently installed 9.04 from the live cd (previous using 8.04 stable). I experienced the same bug with my Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller on board card. I tried to install alsa from src but the sound preference ended up resetting itself sometime between playing a radio stream through rhythm box. Now the sound no longer works when set to alsa playback. Downgrading to the 8.10 kernel is not an option worth considering for myself.
I do prefer alsa due to the fact that I use Wolfenstein and would like to hear pidgin sounds when I have a message during the game. So yeah this is a big deal with this bug.
