 I have a Dell Latitude E6410 and sound is working fine with pulseaudio.
 However, I get some error messages when I start pulseaudio:

 $ pulseaudio
 E: alsa-util.c: snd_pcm_avail_delay() returned strange values: delay 0 is
 less than avail 24.
 E: alsa-util.c: Most likely this is a bug in the ALSA driver
 'snd_hda_intel'. Please report this issue to the ALSA developers.

 As suggested by the messages I reported the bug to ALSA. Here's the bug
 report:
 https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=5154

 The ALSA developers seemed to suggest that I get pulseaudio developers
 involved ... so here we are.
