I up installed 10.10 netbook remix on my Dell Inspiron netbook about 2 months ago and it's had no problems until yesterday. For reasons that are entirely unclear the sound just stopped functioning. I have no system sound, no sound from audio or video files, no sound at all.
I have read through the forums and tried some of the suggestions offered for other sound issues, but without success. I have checked to be sure nothing is muted in the alsa mixer etc. Unless I've missed something all seems to be as it should.
I run Ubuntu 10.04 on my desktop computer and, oddly enough it also lost all sound. This happened before Christmas 2010. Once again I tried many solutions offered in forums and spent some time working on the problem on IRC #ubuntu. So far no luck getting sound back on that system either.
I am beginning to suspect a ghost in the machine, and the ghost likes thing very quiet. Help with either of these problems will be most gratefully accepted. Thanks in advance
