Only show Intel as well.

I suspect the Sigmatel hardware is bad. Would linux see the Sigmatel
hardware if it was bad?

In your OP, you mentioned that you could never get the Sigmatel drivers to
function under Windows. Are you sure that XP wasn't just being stupid in
how it was reporting, and that you actually don't have any Sigmatel
hardware?

I suppose it's not completely impossible to have two different audio chips
from different makers on board, each for a single and different purpose --
one to play audio and one to record audio? -- but I've been doing this for
a long time and I've never come across that. It seems even more weird to
find it in a run-of-the-mill laptop.
