I replied to myself earlier with the solution which was to add a line to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
Never had heard of aplay so it's good to learn a new command.
Alsamixer (or its command line equivalent, amixer) are often the solution, but
the correct control to change isn't always obvious - it wasn't obvious on my
Lenovo laptop - a friend with similar hardware logged in over ssh and managed
to get it to work.
You mentioned using Ubuntu, which runs Pulse Audio by default. This
complicates the audio configuration substantially. If you need to modify
volume settings in Pulse Audio, pactl appears to be the relevant command (and
whatever desktop environment is running presumably has appropriate controls as well).
