has anything been resolved with the low-quality sound?

hey everyone,

just checking in to see if any news happened with the quality of sound in 8.04. i just updated my alsa to the newest 1.0.18 version and it didnt do anything (at least as far as i can tell). any new info would be awesome.

Rather than start a new post, I take it this is the 'tinny' sound problem? I have an iMac 8,1 running 8.10 and although I have sound, its that poor I use OS X for anything that needs sound. Or am I missing something?

There is a subwoofer in certain macbooks that is not activated in Linux. I believe there is a bug report on this. You might try the jaunty alpha and see if it works there or not.
