So should I file a separate report for Subsystem Id: 0x103c360b?

On the laptop with karmic booted:
$ cat /proc/asound/version
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.22.1.
Compiled on Mar 25 2010 for kernel 2.6.31-21-generic (SMP).

but alsa-base is showing:
1.0.20
so is there an mismatch between the two?

And with lucid booted:
 cat /proc/asound/version
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.22.1.
Compiled on Apr 29 2010 for kernel 2.6.32-22-generic (SMP).

So why the huge difference between the two? Note: in karmic internal mic
works, sound from headphone & speakers at the same time. I also get
additional internal mic options (Mic B, Mic C, Mic E, and Mic F (Mic F
works).
  In lucid internal mic does not work, sound from headphones & speakers
are separated when the headphones are plugged in (sound in headphones,
no sound in speakers - works as expected). No added Mic x options as in
Karmic.

Both have the
options snd-hda-intel model=dell-vostro
or
options snd-hda-intel model=olpc-xo-1_5
in /etc/modeprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
(meaning that I can put either in lucid & speaker/headphones work as
expected. Neither make any difference in karmic).

And where should I look? Is alsa-base not the correct module affecting
this?

No. It took me quite some time the othere day to back out the -dev mess
and restore my systems (karmic and lucid) back to standard after your
previous suggestions. I had to 'force versions' to back out the -dev
packages. No *user* should be advised to use ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev.
