Debian stretch - No speech after installation

[Øyvind Lode]

Hi:

Interesting.
I've only seen the problem I described on this particular machine.
I booted up the Talking Arch ISO inside the VM with the same sound
configuration (auto detect) and Arch came up with working sound.

I installed Debian testing on a physical machine earlier today and
that system came also up talking after installation.

Please let me know if I can provide something from the arch live image
to get sound working on Debian.

I indeed have sound working here now on Talking Arch.

Debian is my favourite distro and I would love to get it running on
this machine.
