First, Thanks to Tempestuous, one of his previous posts got me on the right track for testing, once I knew which module to search for in the forum, i.e. snd-hda-intel.
Here is what to do:
- Edit /etc/modprobe.conf and add this line:
options snd-hda-intel model=3stack-dig
- Reboot (saving settings)
- Set volume by clicking menu Multimedia/Puppy Sound Mixer
Puppy should now have audible sound playback

Notes:
I have not tested the microphone yet.
"Master" is the main control for maximum sound output, possibly with "pcm" or "speaker" as a sub control. This depends on the parameter (see below). The parameter used above "3stack-dig" uses master and speaker.
The modules needed are: snd-hda-intel, snd-pcm-oss, snd-mixer-oss, snd-seq-oss. These are loaded by default in Puppy 3.01.
Parameters:
Instead of 3stack-dig, you can try one of the following parameters: 3stack-6ch, 3stack-6ch-dig, 6stack-dig. Note, the parameter "auto" did not work. I did not test "lenovo".
Maybe someone with 6 Channel audio speakers can report on that.
I have only tested this on the 701 4GB model Serial Number 7B series. Please add results for other models or revisions.
Tested on Puppy 3.01. Please report on other versions.
