I just did a quick update on my wife's machine which also uses Intel
HDA and have sound in KDE so at least it's not a generic problem.

I guess you're going to need to provide some debug info. Maybe try a
complete power down and not just a warm boot. Not finding the device
at all is problematic. What's in lspci, etc.?

Post back with more info.
