Then it should work definitely... at least on Thinkpad X60.

Remove all module options for snd-hda-intel.  That's the first step.
After loading the module, see the file
/sys/modules/snd_hda_intel/parameters/probe_mask.  This value should
be -1 (not 1 or 2).

Honestly, this is a kind of topic that is handled on alsa-users ML...
