You could try that kernel and also check the bits in the dmesg.

ASM_ID=0x%04x <- grep for that printk, and take the (value & 0x38) >> 3
if it's anything but 1, 3, 7, 5, then it could potentially be a problem.

Looking at the thread, the MBA looks to have a Cirrus Logic codec, and
not a Realtek one, so that kernel isn't going to fix anything for them.

True then again Jurgen mention that the patch works for him while Jan says it does not...

Assuming that..

config SND_HDA_CODEC_CIRRUS is set to yes to include the cirrus Logic codec support in snd-hda-intel driver

And

config SND_HDA_CODEC_NVHDMI is set to yes which will include NVIDIA HDMI HD-audio codec support in snd-hda-intel which should support NVIDIA MCP89

And he still has not sound and he has tried something like echo "options snd-hda-intel model=mbp55" >> /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf I would try the .37 from your repo if it's not utterly broken that is.

Worst case scenario is that he continues to experience no sound.
