No sound or sound card not detected in Dell Precision WorkStation T7400

Question

I have got Ubuntu 10.04 Server Edition running on a Dell Precision T7400 Workstation with an Intel Sound card

Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: AD198x Analog [AD198x Analog]

and I am trying to get the sound working on the system, but the sound is not working.

On typing lspci at the prompt, all I get is this

What cable do you use I use hdmi and had to open settings then sound and select my card from a list of about 10 have a look see if that helps. — Mark Kirby, Jul 14, 2012 at 14:17

In Ubuntu, there is a preferences dialog for audio settings. Search for audio settings in the Applications & Preference Menu.

Now you should see a window with some preferences. Try to select different sources and outputs.

Tried both selecting my sound card as well as changing options under Preference Menu. Didn't work.
