Hello again.
I was able to get my internal speakers working for my HP Pavilion Dv4 laptop by following the advice I found in the alsa-devel archives. That advice seems to have worked for quit a few people who found it by a post I made to the Ubuntu Forums.
But now, after I have upgraded my Ubuntu from version 8.10 (when sound worked) to version 9.04, sound no longer works correctly. I have some detailed information about the sequencing and the specific error. Attached is an alsa-info.txt output.
Here's what I'm seeing (extracts from dmesg/kernel logs):

This is pretty unusual. Most likely either a BIOS or an ACPI problem, has little to do with the sound driver itself.
