Sorry, but it is a driver problem. The current
( 2.6.29.4-167.fc11.i686.PAE in my case ) kernel ships the 1.0.18a Alsa
driver (confirm this with "cat /proc/asound/version") Significant work
was done on hda_intel between 18a and 19. The current version is
1.0.20. Download the source from http://www.alsa-project.org compile
and install. You'll need the development rpms, of course, but otherwise
there should be no problems. (Works for me TM)
