To setup the sound correctly on your Toshiba running some sort of ubuntu follow the steps on the following link.
From website:

More specifically make sure your module parameters at correct. On my computer "options" was only "option" and "model" was only "mode" which cause the module not to load correctly.
Manually Specify Module Parameters
First you must find which model of sound card you use, so run this command:
cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec
It will return model of your sound card(s), for example: "Codec: Realtek ALC260", so your sound card is ALC260.
You should open a file in ALSA documentation. This file is here (replace KERNEL_VERSION with your kernel's version!):
/usr/src/KERNEL_VERSION/Documentation/sound/alsa/ALSA-Configuration.txt
If you didn't have this file, for version 2.6.22, you can check out this link or you can find ALSA-Configuration.txt in the subdirectory /alsa-kernel/Documentation/ of the alsa-driver-1.x.x directory you created.
Search for your model, and take a look at its types, for example I found the following lines for ALC260:
hp HP machines
hp-3013 HP machines (3013-variant)
fujitsu Fujitsu S7020
acer Acer TravelMate
basic fixed pin assignment (old default model)
auto auto-config reading BIOS (default)
Read all of them and try to find the one which is more similar to your sound card, for example if you have a laptop, you can choose "acer".
Open /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base with the following command:
sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
Then paste the following line at the end of the file (change MODEL with the type of sound card's model, in our example it should be "acer" (without quotation marks)):
options snd-hda-intel model=MODEL
Reboot
