Anyway sound problem resolved, as below.

I may try some of the model options for the hda intel card, but it seems to be producing sounds ok with the default. Speaker-test just trying left front is strange though.
I don't know if this is related but there has been a problem with the ice1724 driver forever that until you change the volume on boot, only the left channel works. Once it has been adjusted once, it is ok until reboot. Maybe your driver copied some of that ice1724 code and copied the behavior as well.
Thanks Stan, and all you other folks at Alsa-devel who are working on resolving Alsa driver problems.
Nigel.
You're welcome. Good to hear a success story once in a while. :-)
