106 pages is alot, so i hope someone finds this.

i recently tried skype and found out that my internal microphone does not work. i followed the guide and a couple other threads to the point wher i have PulseAudio and it is configured(or so i think).

when i go to volume control and unmute mic boos (+20db), there is a annoying static noise. Other than that i have not heard or seen any sounds registered on the mic.

Soundrecorder crashes if i try it, and also ekiga softphone's sound test. i have identified the mic as a ATI HDA SB, but i dont even know if that is specific enough. i am running hardy and also wondering if switching to intrepid would be worth it.

Thanks,

I found that connector you were looking for
Cindy, is this the thing you were looking for?
www.liangdianup.com/computeraccessories_1.htm
It's on the list of computer accessories and parts. They have the DVI video thing to convert that jap monitor to work with your other computer. Just about any other kind of wire adaptor, usb connectors, monitor extension wires, ps2 extention wires, and all kinds of female and male swap connectors and things that I think would help your shop. If that above link don't work then goto www.lducompany.com and click on computer accessories. Let me know if that is what you need and give me your email address again.

kaniza I have the same card and the same problem, I've reported it on launchpad they haven't been very helpful so far. I haven't tried compiling but nothing else has worked. NH

That's not a fix, it's a poor workaround. Intrepid and Hardy users should configure PulseAudio correctly instead of doing the above.

See: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578



Maybe so and I will give it a try. But I just need my sound on now and the previous suggestion worked in a minute. Now that i have some time i might give this look. By the way it was working fine before upgrading to 8.10 from 8.04

Hi all,
I have installed Kubuntu 8.10 with xfce successfully except one problem.
I cant make the Kubuntu recognize the soundblaster 128 pci that I have.
(I test it with Ubuntu 8.10 livecd and all was OK). Any suggestion...? I dont want to change to ubuntu. (goes slower with ubuntu cause my pc is old).

I am sure that this has been solved already over and over again.
But please, please once more:

I am totaly new to Ubuntu, and ofcourse after installation I haven't got any sound anymore.
I've done the first step and found out that my sound device is a Via 8237. But in my alsamixer (the one you activate in the terminal window) the card and chip is under Pulseaudio. So I think that that is the problem.
But how can I change that to my Via 8237?

Thanks a bunch,
Dyllpan

I fixed the problem by doing the following:


sudo killall pulseaudio
sudo alsa force-reload

and then going to System>Preferences>Sound and switching all the combo boxes from Autodetect to the option that had my sound card and ALSA. :)

I was having the same problem, all the tests in sound controls working, the default media player working (but not VLC), the mouse-over-mp3 player working but nothing (except direct links to media files) working in firefox, and none of the 'desktop' sounds working (except the drum-beat at login, i guess before it loaded my broken personal settings).

This fixed it. thanks

You're welcome, but as psyke mentioned this is a workaround and not a fix (the difference: you'll haveto do this every time your problem repeats, a fix would make the problem go away for good). If you have the time, please follow his instructions in this thread (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578) to really get your problem solved.

hello
I used your tutorial on how to fix my sound and after i used the
Code:
"sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils",
the reinstallation of the package with the
Code:
"sudo apt-get install linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils"
returns an error "linux-sound-base is not available but is referred to by another package.This may mean the package is missing,has been obsoleted or is only available from another source"
I tried to restart it to see if it works but on reboot,i had lost my desktop.I used the
Code:
"sudo apt-get install gdm ubuntu-desktop"
to get it back but i recieve the error
"Package gdm is not available,but is reffered to by another package.This may mean the package is missing,has been obsoleted or is only available from another source.E: Package gdm has no installation candidate"

Go to System->Administration->Software Sources.
Check
"Canonical-supported Open software - (main)"
"Community-maintained Open Source software - (universe)"

I think that should solve your problem. If not try checking the other repositories one at a time to see which one contains the package you want. These settings were changed when you upgraded to 8.10. I had the same problem.

READ THIS IF YOUR SOUND IS GONE OR DISTORTED!

This is my story:

First I upgraded to 8.10 without any problems.

Suddenly after a reboot sound is completely gone.

I fiddle around for days and try several things and finally I manage to get sound back by running


$ alsamixer -Dhw

and unmuting the PCM-channel and setting it to 100% and then saving the settings so they'll be the same after every reboot by running


$ sudo alsactl store 0

However, the sound is now distorted. I fiddle around for several hours more and try this howto among other things:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto

I'm pretty sure this is unnecessary since the problem remained exactly the same. Then, FINALLY I came across this information:

http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/TroubleShooting#Sound_can_be_heard_but_it_is_disto rted

After setting the level of the PCM to just under 50% my sound is back to normal as far as I can hear. Don't forget to store the settings for the alsamixer as mentioned above!

I'm running Ubuntu 8.10 on a Fujitsu-Siemens Si 1520 and the output from


$ lspci

is

00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)

and the output from


cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec

is

Codec: Conexant CX20549 (Venice)

Hope this saves some people from severe frustration caused by days without sound.

I was also able to restore sound by following yomamas tip above. Just one thing: Be sure to really unmute the PCM channel! I first only raised the volume bar with the "up" key. Still no sound. But after unmuting using the "M" key sound was back! Its easy to miss the unmuting.

This is very helpful, but can't spot the help I need with a transient pop or tick sounds I hear playing music with rhythmbox, amarok, and audacious player.

I play flac files, ripped from CDs, and the sound I hear reminds me of listening to old LPs with small "pops". I use 8.1. When I play the same files in XP using the foobar windows music player background is dead silent.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hello guys,

After upgrading to 8.10 I've had the sound problem too, but I finally found a solution. I don't know If you guys already tried this but it worked for me :
in a console :


$ pulseaudio & pavucontrol

And I went to "Move Stream" in the little drop down list at the top right corner. I changed to the other stream available ans *tadaaa* sound was working.

I found this thanks to this excellent post :

Hi all,

As many before me, and probably many after me, I too have no sound. I had sound when I first installed 8.10 (clean install). I know this because I heard the familiar Ubuntu log in sounds. I couldn't get music to play though, specifically, Sirius internet radio.

I started tinkering, and that's when everything fell apart. :(

Anyway, now I have no sound at all, not even at startup. I followed the instructions at the very beginning of this thread, and I got as far as "ALSA driver Compilation" using alsa-source. I get about 50% through the installation of the driver and it stops saying
Build of the package alsa-source failed! When I open the build log file, I get a very long text file. Not sure what I should post from that. But here are the ending lines...

At this point, I'm totally lost. I have a SB Audigy 2 ZS on a home built desktop. Any help out there?

In the meantime, I'll continue searching for a solution.

Thanks in advance.

Dear all,

I'm wondering why MPD is munching up quite a chunk of my CPU usage, around 25% when the total amount is 30—40% (PFA the screenshot) and while for instance Xorg and Firefox use some 3—5% each. I mean, any ideas what could be causing this? One would expect MPD, running locally in the background without a GUI frontend, to be all but resource hungry.

Regards,

Piraja

I posted to this thread with this problem. This is how I solved it. I installed the generic linux headers.

sudo aptitude install linux-ubuntu-modules-`uname -r` linux-generic

I was reluctant to do this in case it solved more problems than it solved. This uninstalled some parts of a third party program but has caused no problems. This on reboot gave me back my sound volume applet but still no sound. Next I went into preferences->sound and on the devices tab set everything that would to auto-detect. Then it worked. This has also got totem working too, before this it wouldn't play anything. Intel ICH6 acere97 card. Hope this helps someone. Happy new year.

This seems to be a rather common problem... In my case the solution was (1) installing GNOME Alsa Mixer (sudo apt-get install gnome-alsamixer) and (2) checking the box "Headphone jack sense". I'm not sure this works in every case, though. Good luck!

EDIT: Oh dear, now I realized that the "Headphone" check-box is present also in GNOME Volume Control (which is one of the top panel default applets), at least in my present setup (I encountered the problem on another, older box).

I'm wondering why MPD is munching up quite a chunk of my CPU usage, around 25% when the total amount is 30—40%
I'm still wondering — now it's ca. 44% out of 48% total, and this doesn't make sense to me... MPD is a daemon, anyway, playing in the background, and no frontend is open at the moment. Any suggestions, anyone? Another thread? Otherwise MPD is quite a slick way to play music, but this CPU hunger really puzzles me.

P.S. I stopped MPD (mpc stop) and switched to my favourite non-MPD player MOC (Music On Console) — it's CPU usage amounts to 9% of the total 12—16% while I'm writing this. Hmm...

P.P.S. Seems to be an ALSA bug (http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/Tuning), and has been well-known for quite a while already (I know now I should've done the usual googling before posting here). I'm just about resolved to migrate from ALSA to OSS now.

I upgraded from Hardy Heron to Intrepid Ibex and now the sound icon shows a red X over it and of course there is no sound. When I click on it, I get this error message:


The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you don't have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that you don't have a sound card configured.

You can remove the volume control from the panel by right-clicking the speaker icon on the panel and selecting "Remove From Panel" from the menu.

And also this one:


No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found.

When I code aplay -l on the terminal I get:


aplay: device_list:215: no soundcards found...

Then I enter lspci -v and obtain:

I've spent almost my whole January 1st trying to find a solution to my problem. There are lots of entries on Google referring to the same problem but none of them give me the solution I need. The funny thing is that I faced the same situation when I upgraded from Ubuntu 7.10 to Ubuntu 8.4. Surfing the net I found something that worked out well but I just can't remember what I did.

I'm just about resolved to migrate from ALSA to OSS now.

Said and ... almost done, following the instructions at Ubuntu Community Documentation on OpenSound (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSound). Except that during the


sudo dpkg -i oss*.deb

phase of the process something rather disturbing happened: The new HP Compaq 6735S laptop started a real loud, real high-pitched shriek — it's past midnight and my family was sleeping before that. I did not know what else to do but to try and shut up the infernal noise by hard-resetting — even that seemed to take ages, given the circumstances. I did see an error message in the terminal, but could not stop and read...

S**t.

Well, I suppose I'll have to boot up in recovery mode to get into root console and try to undo the disastrous changes...

I'm writing this on another (desktop) machine. I hope the unhappy installation did not break any hardware — the noise was really frightening in the middle of the night, a very high-pitched microphone-feedback-like shrieking.

EDIT: I relocated a sequel to this post to another thread (http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6482328&postcount=415).

I'm more or less a newbie myself, but I would like to ask if you tried to install over a wireless connection. If so, I don't think you have network access automatically before logging into Gnome and thus auto-starting Network Manager. So you might try again over a wired connection. Just a guess, since I am a non-technical end-user myself, and refrain from shooting in the dark any further than this. Have luck!

My nagging audio problems — most of all, very bad sound quality — were solved fifteen minutes ago by a very simple move. My brand new laptop is an HP Compaq 6735S, running Ubuntu Intrepid 64-bit, with an ATI SBx00 Azalia (AD 198X) sound card. I have tried quite a few things to clear the distorted sound output, without satisfactory results — the worst effect of trial-and-error was an infernal feedback between an interior mic and loudspeaker in the middle of the night, as I already wrote.

A moment ago I just added the following line to the beginning of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base:


options snd-hda-intel model=laptop

Sound quality got dramatically better, and also another issue was fixed: previously no sound was heard through the speakers when viewing YouTube videos, while only headphones gave sound.

Such issues can get really frustrating for an unexperienced user and finding even such a simple solution through googling and searching forums can be surprisingly hard work sometimes. Thanks for all the info I have found on Ubuntu Forums, too; I suppose it was also a good thing to update ALSA to the latest snapshot.

Just like you needed sudo before the apt-get command, you'll need to use sudo in front of the dpkg command. Then it won't complain about needing admin rights.

It was working fine, and then I decided to use the auto update feature and updated some things. Now the sound doesn't work. Movies and videos play but no sound is coming out. I've played with alsamixer and all the channels are not muted, but still no sound.

My friend is not around for help, so that's why I'm posting here. Through searching around, this is what I've determined:

**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: SB [HDA ATI SB], device 0: ALC262 Analog [ALC262 Analog]
Subdevices: 0/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA)
Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Unknown device 017b
Flags: bus master, slow devsel, latency 64, IRQ 17
Memory at f8600000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
Capabilities: <access denied>

I believe it is using the ATI RS690 chipset (SB600 sound and I think its running Intel HD sound) and I also ran this command:

speaker-test -Dplughw:0,0 -c2

speaker-test 1.0.15

Playback device is plughw:0,0
Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 2 channels
Using 16 octaves of pink noise
Playback open error: -16,Device or resource busy
Playback open error: -16,Device or resource busy

and it kept repeating that Playback error.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. -Ody

This may or may not fix your problem, but after each reboot I have to type the following in order to get sound:

sudo killall pulseaudio
sudo alsa force-reload

I'm actually on here trying to figure out why I need to do this and fix the actual problem, but in the mean time, this solution works (for me).

Thanks Crank,
Okay, I tried this once, and a window popped up asking if I wanted to restart Volume control. I clicked Yes to restart Volume control, and the sound still doesn't work.

I tried the commands again, but this time, I didn't restart the Volume control. This didn't work, and after rebooting the whole system, I lost the speaker icon next to the time. :(

Any idea how to get it back? Any other suggestions on fixing the sound? Thanks again.

Sorry that didn't help. It was worth a shot. ;)

To get your volume control back, you should be able to right click the task bar, add, then select volume control.

I was able to get my volume control icon back. Hoping someone can help me with my sound now. :)

are you using USB speakers, or plugging into an audio jack, and in turn, a sound card?

My system is an all in one system that has built in speakers. Again, it was working fine, before I installed some updates. I haven't touched it from a hardware perspective. Thanks again.

i typed:
sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r) module-assistant alsa source

it says:
linux-headers-2.6.27-9-generic is already the newest version.

alsa-base is already the newest version.


does this mean i have the latest drivers? linux recognizes all my sound devices. i still cant get sound though. i'm linux newbie too :confused:

master volume in the alsamixer is up and un-muted also.

After configuring ATI Catalyst audio plays during sound preferences tests (Using HDA ATI HDMI ATI HDMI(ALSA)), But no sound at splash, startup, apps, etc... Have only been able to configure VLC media player, which works fine. How do i get sound system wide.

I'm having problems with the Eurocardaplay -l on my laptop.

I ran the command



aplay -l


and I got the response



aplay: device_list:221: no soundcard found...


So I then ran the command



lspci -v


and I found the following



00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 02)
Subsystem: Dell Unknown device 022f

Memory at fe9fc000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]

which I assume is my soundcard? However, I don't which driver corresponds to the soundcard. Does anyone know? cheers

My experience with Ubuntu 8.10 and sound. I've got ICH7 sigmatel stac9221 sound on my motherboard, everything worked fine after install. At some point it broke, after trying everything out suggested in the first post of this thread I didn't have any other ideas than reinstalling Ubuntu.

Of course, the sound started working again... until I activated proprietary nVidia graphics drivers. No sound until I deactivated the driver (both 173 and 177 seem to be breaking my sound).

Don't know where the issue might be, as I'm a Linux newbie and usually I get lost in the never ending log files :)

The bad distorted sound returned! After a fit of fury I checked Alsamixer and realized that somehow the PCM volume had been changed by someone (maybe me, after all?) to 100% and bingo, that caused the distortion... So it seems that's the first thing to check, after all. Feeling a bit stupid, once again.

Nevertheless, I don't think switching PCM volume to 100% should distort the sound when the master volume is moderate, even though that's obviously not the right way to handle sound volume.

I think I did all the things required in the beginning of this thread.. But I'm still unable to run more than one program with sound at the same time! Can somebody help me?

Hi I'm trying to get sound from my C-Media CMI8738 device. I was following the instructions from this guide. I had a problem that I will try my best to describe here.

Here is what aplay -l gave me

So I went to alsamixer from here. It list "HDA Intel" as the card. So I tried Alsa diver compilation using alsa source.
sudo module-assistant a-i alsa-source Failed. Here is the failure script I received from alsa-source.buildlog.

I upgraded from Hardy Heron to Intrepid Ibex and now the sound icon shows a red X over it and of course there is no sound. When I click on it, I get this error message:


The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you don't have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that you don't have a sound card configured.

You can remove the volume control from the panel by right-clicking the speaker icon on the panel and selecting "Remove From Panel" from the menu.

And also this one:


No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found.

When I code aplay -l on the terminal I get:


aplay: device_list:215: no soundcards found...

Then I enter lspci -v and obtain:

I've spent almost my whole January 1st trying to find a solution to my problem. There are lots of entries on Google referring to the same problem but none of them give me the solution I need. The funny thing is that I faced the same situation when I upgraded from Ubuntu 7.10 to Ubuntu 8.4. Surfing the net I found something that worked out well but I just can't remember what I did.

Thanks for your time.

Still looking for a solution to the sound problem. For some reason, the system doesn't recognize my sound card. I had a similar case when upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04 but then I found help on a forum. The only thing I did was to modify a single line of a configuration file. With the new upgrade all changes are lost and now my computer doesn't have any sound.

Any ideas?

:confused:

I've come across the same problem as Jr_Herman.

aplay -l
aplay: device_list:215: no soundcards found...

What is the difference between the device_list:225: and device_list:215: ?

Now I have noticed that bios has the chip set for IRQ 9 (I changed it from 5 just to see if that might fix the problem) and here Ubuntu and when the PCI PnP at start up says it's at IRQ 12? could this be it? if so how can I fix it? My BIOS only allows the IRQ to be set up to 10.

Anyway, I have followed the instructions to the point of building the kernel and gotten the same error after about 50% was complete. Here is the end of the log from the Module Asst.

If need be I can pick up another Sound card, but being finances are tight so I would rather not.

I too experience exactly the same trouble after upgrading to i ibex. It didn't start right away:
1) upgrade to ibex
2) noticed synaptic error regarding nvidia-glx package. Synaptic said it needed to be purged but the purge failed because of a missing file. I "touched" the file into existance and the removal worked.
3) after a reboot, my sound card would no longer be recognized, same symptoms as AmadeusOK.
4) tried all the tricks on the front of this thread and nothing works (though the manual compiles don't seem to work - happy to provide a pipe'd output if anyone is curious)
5) I'm using an Aureal Vortex 2 card au8830 chipset; I also have onboard audio via a nVidia nForce2 AC97.
...ironically, this was all started because I wanted to upgrade to Quod Libet 2 for better playback of tunes. QL2 only had a pkg for ibex. Argh.

<RESOLVED> ...mostly... see bottom

OK... I am at my limit of expertise. I have a an old Dell Precision 410 PIII. The ISA cs4236 chipset worked under older versions of Ubuntu by doing a simple
bash <~> modprobe snd-cs4236 Now under hardy the soundcard is not working, and modprobe doesn't help:
bash <~> modprobe snd-cs4236
FATAL: Module snd_cs4236 not found.Looking at the libraries it should be there:
bash <~> locate cs4236

I purged alsa and recompiled the alsa driver for cs4236... it recompiled fine, but the errors are stil the same.
bash <~> aplay -l
aplay: device_list:205: no soundcards found...
Am I correct in assuming that if modprobe doesn't work than adding snd-cs4236 to /etc/modules is useless? I saw this post but I don't know if it is related as I am not truly a hacker: www.linux-archive.org (http://http://www.linux-archive.org/debian-kernel/31468-bug-450742-installation-sound-driver-problem-no-sound-dell-optiplex-gx1.html) This is extremely frustrating considering that I got it working in older versions of Ubuntu... Does anyone see something in my output messages that I don't, or know of something that has changed in Hardy that would effect this chipset? Thanks.

EDIT: RESOLVED

OK.. so I let this problem sit a bit, about a week. Then I came back to it. The first thing I did was finally put snd-cs4236 in /etc/modules , despite the fact that loading it by hand with modprobe kept giving me errors. I also noticed there had been a kernel update, so I ran the update manager. Upon reboot I had a popping sound, and too my surprise also the drumroll when the login screen appeared. However, no login sounds and no sound when I tried mplayer, yet aplay -l was finally seeing the device.

However, I found an old saved link (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=32063) from when I solved this problem on earlier versions of Ubuntu. I went back and tried it. No joy. However I did notice that in the System > Preferences > Sound panel I could switch the sound device to OSS and a test would produce a beep... testing Alsa produced an error and testing ESD froze the applet.

I was getting somewhere, so I looked further and found this posting (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=997506) about Pulseaudio. Considering that this would not work with my ancient hardware I decided to go through it anyway to see if a flash of light would appear. Alas... no. However, I turned off the pulseaudio stuff, went back to System > Preferences > Default Sound Card and switched it back from Pulseaudio to cs4236. I reopened System > Preferences > Sound panel and switched stuff back to alsa... and just for kicks pushed the test button... beeeeeeeep. Huh? it worked? I opened and mpeg movie with mplayer... and I had sound.

Somewhere in all of that fiddling I had turned on something that my little ancient ISA sound chip needed. What exactly I am not sure, but I post this here as a message of hope for all you pilgrims on your journey of linux sound enlightenment.

I still don't have the system sounds working, but so long as I can play training videos with this machine, I am done! (still worked after reboot too!)

Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide v0.5e

UPDATE - The instructions on this page have a new home at Comprehensive_Sound_Problems_Solutions_Guide (http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Comprehensive_Sound_Problems_Solutions_Guide)
I'm still leaving a copy here in the meantime, until I am happy with the layout there.

...


Move on to Getting the ALSA drivers from a *fresh* kernel. This step is easier and is recommended to users who might have been tinkering with their sound settings and want to revert back to the way it was just after installing Ubuntu (without reinstalling Ubuntu of course ;) )

Move on to ALSA driver Compilation, if you have not done so already. If you have, please post a new thread with your problem.



Type the following to shell: (note: module-assistant is optional, it will compile the package for you)
sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r) module-assistant alsa-source


sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa-source

You now have a big blue dialog box (left and right keys to choose 'Yes' and 'No', Enter key proceed). Answer yes (for ISA-PNP - recommended by package maintainers), then yes again (for debugging - recommended by package maintainers).

Now you must pick which driver you want to install. Use space to select and deselect modules, and up and down to navigate.

From General Help step 3, you should know the name of your driver. Deselect 'all' (the * will go away), and select your driver. In my case, I deselected 'all' then selected 'via82xx'. Hit Enter. Almost home free!
[LIST]

If you chose module-assistant
sudo module-assistant a-i alsa-source If the progress bar reaches 100% with no errors, you will have installed the drivers successfully. Resume this guide from General Help step 4.

Unfortunately the progress bar didn't reach 100%, here's what I got:

Hi everybody,

I'm sorry for the long post which follows, but the problem I've experienced is quit strange to me, and I'm just trying to describe what I've done.

I'm a new Kubuntu user, running Kubuntu 8.10 on a laptop (a fujitsu-siemens amilo l7320, with a VIA VT8237/A sound card). At first, I had sound coming through my laptop's built-in speakers, but no sound would come out of the headphone jack.

I couldn't find anything wrong in the alsa mixer settings. After googling and reading through this thread, I thought the cause might be the 'ac97_quirk' setting of the alsa driver for my soundcard, so i tried playing around with its setting in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base, but this did not have any effect. Then I tried adding 'model=fujitsu'. This caused all sound output to stop working (no more sound, even from the built-in speakers). So I undid all my modifications to alsa-base, rebooted, and found out that now, sound was coming through the headphone jack, too.

So I don't know how this is possible, since everything should now be as it was at the beginning, but sound output is working as it should.

However, i can no longer change the sound level by clicking the speaker icon in the system tray, and can no longer mute/unmute sound by pressing "Fn-F3", as I could do before (pressing "Fn-F3" displays a volume bar on the screen, but it says "0%", even when sound is actually playing).

So, I would be very glad if any one more knowledgeable then me has a hunch of what might have caused this (probably, at some point I made some modification that I have forgotten by now, otherwise I can't understand how anything has changed), or if anyone could tell me what to do.

in case it might be related: i have 2 other issues to do with sound right now: playback in amarok stutters, and I can't get any sound when playing audio cd's.

hoping to hear some good ideas!

The URL in step 3 no longer holds a dropdown box. Does anyone know of a current, comparable resource? EDIT: Never mind; here it is: http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Main#Vendors Will Raiden or a mod please update the post accordingly?

OkoSanto, I don't think a long thread like this is a good place for a question. I suggest that you start a new thread and paste that post into it (maybe with a link to this one for context).

OK I have a very bizarre problem. I have system sounds. When Ubuntu starts up I can here the theme music. However, when I try to playback anything through the web, movie player, or anything else I have no sound at all.

After days a messing with sound and many howto's, I have finally have some. I have no systems sounds which is OK. The sound coming from my external, home theatre, is very, very low.
This is a new install of Intrepid Ibex with alsa 1.0.17.

joev@ubuntu:~$ aplay -l

Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
In my old system, Suse 9.2 with an older version of alsa, I had no problem. I would set alsamixer volumes for master, pcm, and IEC958 and set the IEC958 to PCM. Here I do the same, making sure all volumes are not muted and cranked up but need to set the PCM to Analog In and unmute Mic Boos to get any sound. That sound is very very low and has a hiss in it.
Any ideas on how to solve this?

Well, i had a problem and looked around and found not much help.
I'm on a Compaq Presario B3800 laptop, and i had no sound in 8.04 or 8.10.

Result of aplay -l

**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: I82801DBICH4 [Intel 82801DB-ICH4], device 0: Intel ICH [Intel 82801DB-ICH4]

Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

How i solved it was to install Gnome-alsamixer, from HERE (http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/gnome-alsamixer). For those new to ubuntu (like i was) to download off that page, go right down the bottom, and on the left, in a table, will be two options, amd64 and i386. amd64 is for amd64 cpu's, i386 for all else.

I then opened that up and unchecked the "external amplifier" checkbox.
Sound worked.

since you say that your system sounds are ok, try installing amarok and ubuntu-restricted-extras

there is a chance that the mp3s might not play after it as well since one file libmpegfff or something like that is not installed.:mad:

Just add a mp3 in amarok and play it.;)

The pop up generated should direct you to synaptic where it selects the appropriate file and downloads it.
:)
Restart amarok and you should be good to go.:guitar::popcorn:

Amarok requires the "kubuntu-restricted-extras" package, not "ubuntu-restrixcted-extras". The codecs need to be built against xine, so the latter (which uses gstreamer) won't be picked up by amarok. If this is to be done on GNOME, Rhythmbox should be more than enough. Even Totem will do just for testing playback.

I can't solve my sound problem for 2 days. When i installed the system sound was very low when i watched movies and was low quality when i listened to music. Yesterday i installed all the updates for system automatically and rebooted it. Now sound doesn't work and when i try to change the "mute" mode at volume control it writes "No volume control gstreamer plugins and/or devices found".
I tried this guide and did everything like was there, but when i try

I suppose it's onboard and it's "intel hda".

There's your problem. The version of alsa-drivers in the Ubuntu repos doesn't support Intel High-Definition Audio.

Worry not. I also have onboard Intel HDA and I managed to get my audio working. All you need to do is compile the latest alsa-drivers.

Just type this into a terminal:


wget ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.19.tar.bz2
tar xjvf alsa-driver-1.0.19.tar.bz2
cd ./alsa-driver-1.0.19
./configure
make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel
cd ../
rm -rf ./alsa-driver-1.0.19


then try "alsamixer -Dhw" again.

Unfortunately i am getting errors all the time. One of the solutions i tried was similar to yours. i get an error :

February 6th, 2009, 07:37 PM
That error means that the file wasn't there. Wget is a download command, it gets the file (hence the name) and saves it to the current working directory, where tar extracts it. If wget didn't get the file (because it wasn't run, or failed, or whatever reason) tar has nothing to extract.

It should be "sudo make install", not "make sudo install".

The hardware is apparently still not recognized. You may need to reboot in order to load the proper modules. Try the alsamixer again after rebooting and it *should* work.

are you sure that

b) you ran ./configure before running make?

just to give an update to my issue - that was posted earlier. Well I had tried downloading the latest version of ALSA and compiled it from source. Then ran: sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel (obviously this will depend on what sound card you have). This didn't work at first, so I booted into an older kernel then re-installed the latest kernel. Tried to recompile etc - but to no avail. Well yesterday I tried to recompile ALSA - and do the whole modprobe process. All I can say is that it worked - although there was nothing different that I did. Maybe it was because I hadn't shutdown first, but yesterday it just worked. So I would recommend to anyone to get the latest source from ALSA and compile that.

you need to run from the command line: uname -a
take note of which kernel you are using. you should see a string that looks similar to this: 2.6.27-11-generic
then type in: sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-(whatever your kernel is - obviously leave these brackets out)

Pulling out my hair here...

I used the instructions for getting ALSA drivers from a fresh kernel. This has worked for me in the past.

For some reason when I am running an application, I get a tinny-sounding loop and the entire system freezes. When I reboot (hard reboot), the sound module doesn't load.

e.g. lspci -v shows my soundcard fine.

The soundcard I am using is an SB! Live, so the sound module is emu10k1.

I repeat the instructions for getting ALSA drivers from a fresh kernel. Same thing happens with the tinny-sounding loop onward.

I am using PulseAudio and I have followed psyke's guide- I had to disable the onboard sound (AC'97 I believe) as a workaround to get things to work, i.e. force Pulse to roll down to ALSA on the soundcard. I really don't want to fiddle with that part further; I can live without the jacks working on the front of the case.

As has been said before, if Ubuntu is to emerge as a contender vs. Windows and Mac OS X, sound should not be this difficult. It is the ONLY problem I have had consistently and *persistently* with Ubuntu.

GepettoBR
February 9th, 2009, 03:10 PM
I recently bought a new computer, on which I installed Intrepid. I had no sound, then bad sound, then no sound again... I got it fixed,but it was cumbersome. Before that, I had used very release from Feisty to Intrepid on n older model laptop without problems.

If this new computer were the first one on which I tried Ubuntu, I might not have made the switch from Windows. Jaklumen's point is valid and serious. It's one thin for a few models of wreless cards to require that you install ndiswrapper. It's another story when sound doesn't work altogether on a large proportion of machines.

Jaklumen, I suggest you try compiling alsa-lib from the latest source before the driver. There may be some weird dependency issues causing these problems you described. I eventually fixed my problems by compiling from source every package from the alsa download page. Even Wine works with Pulse without requiring padsp (or at least it did util Wine 1.1.14 came along with over 9000 regressions).

How do I do that, step-by-step? Have patience with me; I have little to no experience compiling things from scratch. For some reason, I don't even have access to the alsa-lib package (Error message E:)

I'm sorry. Your previous post gave me the impression that you were familiar with the procedure. You can download all the packages from here (http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Download)

Save the files somewhere and extract them (you'll want at least alsa-lib and alsa-drivers. The others may or may not help you with unrelated issues.) to separate folders (Right-click > Extract Here...).

Then, open a Terminal and navigate to the alsa-lib folder (by typing "cd /path/to/folder/" without the quotes). From there, all you have to do is run
./configure
make
sudo make install and repeat the process for alsa-driver, and anyother package you might have downloaded.

It's just a matter of committing it to memory-- I've done it before but haven't memorized it.

Ok, I downloaded alsa-lib, alsa-drivers, alsa-utils, and alsa-oss, to basically update the packages I already have installed. alsa-lib and alsa-drivers compiled without a hitch, but I got an error message on alsa-utils:

checking for libasound headers version >= 1.0.16... not present.
configure: error: Sufficiently new version of libasound not found.

I have libasound2 installed, so I'm not sure if that's the problem, or what.

Still not getting sound at all. Also, Synaptic doesn't show the updated version numbers.

GepettoBR
February 9th, 2009, 04:54 PM
I believe you'd need the -dev package of libasound (libasound2-dev, likely). If the lib and driver packages installed correctly, you can load the new driver for your soundcard with "modprobe <driver-name>". I believe you've already said what the driver is in another post, so just fill that in. Sound should work after a reboot.

I sympathise with your problem - just remember that it's not really a Canonical thing! The reason that some things often just don't work out of the box - is due to the fact that many of the hardware vendors ie: sound cards - don't release the source for their drivers. So the linux community has to make do with very little - but still they get it right **most** of the time. We should be focusing our frustrations and anger at the hardware vendors who don't want to play the game fairly. We should put pressure on them to either supply source code - or to write decent drivers for linux from their side.

Are you absolutely certain that you're modprobing the correct module? Most sound module names start with "snd_". You said in #1357 that your module was "emu10k1" and I find that a bit ot of the ordinary. Maybe it's "snd_emu10k1" or something entirely different?

It's snd-emu10k1, yes.

Actually, the problem wasn't with ALSA or the software-- it was the sound card. A little research suggests that the sound amplifier blew, which would make sense since it also damaged my speakers. It also makes sense because everything was working fine until I started getting that loud awful sound and then all sound stopped AND everything (Volume Control, alsamixer, etc.) said I didn't have a sound card.

I was having troubles getting alsa-utils to install but I finally found a script elsewhere here to automate installation of ALSA packages a little bit, which installed alsa-utils successfully. Probably overkill since the stock ALSA drivers were working fine.

Ordered another SB! Live card because I'd rather have hardware mixing than wrestle with Pulse Audio to get it to handle mixing right.

The next things I need to do is get ALSA to default to the sound card (after installing the new one), or to turn off onboard audio again. Oh, and get a new set of computer speakers.

Step 4: sudo modprobe snd-
FATAL: Module snd_ not found.

"snd_" is merely the prefix to the module name. This prefix is common to all sound drivers, but they all end differently. For example, my onboard sound driver is "snd_hda_intel". My old Crystal Sound soundcard was "snd_cs46xx".

What you have to do is find out the name of the module for your soundcard (Google is your friend) and use that in the Modprobe command.

Well, there's something I couldn't have guessed :)

I'm glad you figured out the problem. Best of luck getting the new hardware to work!

I'm back to where I started, and I'm not sure it's the hardware anymore.

But one thing I did notice was an "unknown header, ignoring device" error message at boot time. It flashed by so quickly I couldn't write it down, but since it was listed for a pci device, I assumed that it was ignoring the sound card.

When I had the SB Live! card installed, I could see it listed with the lspci -v command. Now that I have the Audigy 2 SE installed, I can't find it with the same command.

Something else is wrong. I had sound for a while, and now... nothing. Same thing, Volume Control and alsamixer insist there are no soundcards.

Yeah.

I rebooted, re-enabled onboard sound in the BIOS, and I have sound again... so now I'm really confused.

Ok LordRaiden (or anyone else), on my laptop I've got a weird problem since upgrading to intrepid. Using some of the sound guides on the forums and help through launchpad after registering lack of sound as a bug after installing the generic kernel I have mostly got the sound working. If my children log in under their user name everything works, system sounds, flash video sound (utube) and sound in DVDs. If I'm logged in as me, the administrator user (but not as root), system sounds don't work nor flash video sound in firefox. When I login I get a system sound in GDM then nothing more. If I click the test button under preferences-> sound all the sounds work except capture. There must be file in my children's home folder that I could copy and everything would work but try as I might I haven't been able to locate it. We also have linux desktop as well, this was already using the generic kernel (for some reason) so the sound on videos and mp3s worked on upgrade. But flash video and system sounds work for none of the five users......

Hi Hollowhead,

One thing to check is the groups that each member belongs to.

In the administration section you can manage each user.

Check the groups each user belongs to and ensure each is a member of the 'audio' group. This should automagically occur, but in this case it may not have.

Hi libihero,

Some suggestions without knowing which Desktop environment you use...

Right click on the speaker icon and select the mixer controls. Make sure that the mic input does not have any red 'X's against it and the the volume is at a suitable level.

Also <and we've all done this - LOL> check that the mic input cable is in the correct port for your sound card.

Per my comment above to libihero


Right click on the speaker icon and select the mixer controls. Make sure that the mic input does not have any red 'X's against it and the the volume is at a suitable level.

Check that this is true for each of the audio options available.

Another thing you could do is open a terminal, type in:

alsamixer

This will give you an interface allowing you to check and modify all the sound elements.

See if any of the audio elements are muted or have the volume too low to hear.

This sound card works in Fedora 10/9/8, and Ubuntu 8.10, 8.04, 7.10, 7.04. Mint is first distro I have found that will not work with SB card. :-(

Any suggestions as to where to turn now? (Back to Ubuntu, most likely!)

Have you tried compiling the latest alsa-drivers from source? That might fix the problem.

looks like this is the sound problems thread

XUBUNTU 8.10 on a Satellite A85 laptop (ATI IXP ac97 soundcard)

as far as i can tell the hardware was recognized. the volume control panel widget works fine, but there's just not sound out of the pc speakers or the headphone jack

when i click the widget the xfce4-mixer app opens up and everything in there seems to work fine, just no sound still

under applications > system > services there are two audio settings management services

first is the aumix (which was on after the install)
second is the (alsa-utils) wich was not on, but i have switched to for now)

i will edit this post with diagnostic info (dmesg, lspic, aplay) in a little bit

edit: i've attached some text files

thanks for any help
chris

Hi Hollowhead. How did you go?

I'm afraid I'm a bit confused by your two posts. Your previous said:


Ok LordRaiden (or anyone else), ...If my children [my emphasis] log in under their user name everything works, system sounds, flash video sound [my emphasis] (utube) and sound in DVDs.

In the next sentence you say that "...system sounds don't work nor flash video sound in firefox..." when you're logged in as you.



But then you say:


But flash video and system sounds work for none of the five users...

Your last post says:


Thanks 4ebees but it surely cannot be that since the sound works to an extent for everyone[my emphasis] -just not fully.

If things are not fully working, can you please check what you've written and let us know what is happening/not happening so we can help find a more specific solution.

Thanks.

...and yes, when sound doesn't work properly it is a complete PITA!

:)

Yeah, tried the latest and greatest, uninstalled as per the guide, then did a fresh compile and build - it's in the "make" that things start to go awry. I'm going to try again after taking out soundblaster audigy and see if onboard sound will work. From memory it's a standard intel based integrated chipset, so I guess that should work... Love ubuntu, thought Mint was a step up in usability and eye-candy, but if I can't get sound, I'm straight back to Ub8-10 :P

Following the instructions in this thread, I get the following error after typing the following code:


sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa-source

Hi All
I installed my Ubuntu 6.06 few days back and was not able to configure the soundcard .(the volume control icon showed hda intel and Sigmatel STAC9221 A2 as the two devices).
After installing gstreamer plugins the players Totem,Kaffeine seemed to run the songs but no sound appeared(song tracker moved). alsamixer cmd showed the levels as 100 for each. tried for different formats ogg,spx,wav,mp3.........

When i looke up for solution i found this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
And followed the steps 1 cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec
2 http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/sound/alsa/ALSA-Configuration.txt
3 options snd-hda-intel model=MODEL
reboot

results 1 Codec: Sigmatel STAC9221 A2
2 searched my card in the Alsa txt and found this
STAC9220/9221

1007 dell-m82 Dell XPS M121

3 As my Motherboard is Intel 945 I replaced MODEL with 3stack as asked in the
help.ubuntu.com site

Now after reboot,---------------the volume control icon got red (blocked) and error appears as "No volume control gstreamer plugin/device found."
---------------the aplay cmd shows

---------------------the cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec shows no such directory.
---------------Totem on playing starts with error as could not establish connxn with sound server.

There is a significant error in this guide. When adding multiple users to the audio group there should be a comma separating users, not a colon. It should read
audio:x:29:user1,user2 not
audio:x:29:user1:user2 as written in the guide. It's a simple mistake but it caused me a lot of aggravation.
thanks for this great guide!

you should also link to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=843012 and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4928900 and any other guides I may have missed.

My sound did work originally, but at some point the startup sounds were replaced by some odd, scratchy, static-y sounds. I fiddled with it for a long time until I read this on another forum:

CRACKLING SOUND

NOTE: that we have been seeing PCM channels becoming muted during updates without user intervention so it is worth checking your Alsa PCM mixer level if you are suddenly getting crackling sound when sound is supposed to be being produced.

In terminal type the command below and check your PCM mixer level:

alsamixer -Dhw
************************************************** ******************
After running that command, I saw the PCM mixer level was zero. I went into Applications>Sound and Video and ran ALSA Mixer, and adjusted the PCM volume up. Bingo.
Hope it is as easy for all of you.

YOU ARE THE MAN!!! My sound had been dead after a massive update (more than 200) and I was getting pissed off (really pissed off), I read this post and it solved my problems.

Thanks so much!

I posted a thread about it, but didn't get any response.
I'm running an XFi, but the microphone is somehow tied to the pulseaudio capture. So what happens is when I want to use my mic, I have to listen to myself. The capture is essentially tied to the playback.

Just a bit of strangeness here...


cat /proc/asound/modules
0 <NULL>


Sound card works, though the volume is a little low, not what I am used to, but perhaps that is a difference between Creative Labs and ASUS? maybe?

Aside from that, I get all the right answers from the console... at least I think I do. lol

Hey guys, I apologize if this solution has been posted already, but I just wanted to jot it down, and didn't have time to read all 11 pages...
Fresh install of Ibex + Xfce, after an update, my sound controls stopped working (in the panel, and in all apps). The volume icon was in the upper right, but clicking on it produced a control window with nothing in it.
Here is the low-down on my H/W:

Kernel driver in use: Intel ICH
Kernel modules: snd-intel8x0

Of course, first thing I did was try to load alsamixer:

root@paul-desktop:~# alsamixer

alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device

So next I verified all the right modules were loaded:

root@paul-desktop:~# lsmod|grep snd

snd_ac97_codec 111652 1 snd_intel8x0

soundcore 15328 1 snd
snd_page_alloc 16136 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm

All looked well, so I was kinda stumped. So next checked the alsamixer man pages and saw this:

OPTIONS
-h, -help
Help: show available flags.

-c <card number or identification>
Select the soundcard to use, if you have more than one. Cards are numbered from 0 (the default).

Since I know my card's there, and my OS knows it's there (after all, it did load the drivers), I decided to try running alsamixer again, but specify the card number:

root@paul-desktop:~# alsamixer -c 0

I started with 0 (zero), and voila, alsamixer loaded up with the correct card identified in the upper left... So obviously, there's a screwed up config file somewhere... Next order of business was to check /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf for any weirdness. Didn't see anything weird, but I did notice this:

# pre-load the configuration files

@hooks [
{
func load
files [
"/usr/share/alsa/pulse.conf"
"/usr/share/alsa/bluetooth.conf"
"/etc/asound.conf"
"~/.asoundrc"
]
errors false
}
]

The pulse & bluetooth files are irrelevant to my situation, and /etc/asound.conf doesn't exist... So I checked out .asoundrc in my home dir...

root@paul-desktop:~# cat .asoundrc
# ALSA library configuration file

# Include settings that are under the control of asoundconf(1).
# (To disable these settings, comment out this line.)
</home/paul/.asoundrc.asoundconf>

Of course, leading me onto another trail:


root@paul-desktop:~# cat .asoundrc.asoundconf
# ALSA library configuration file managed by asoundconf(1).
#
# MANUAL CHANGES TO THIS FILE WILL BE OVERWRITTEN!
#
# Manual changes to the ALSA library configuration should be implemented
# by editing the ~/.asoundrc file, not by editing this file.
!defaults.pcm.card Audigy
defaults.ctl.card Audigy
defaults.pcm.device 0
defaults.pcm.subdevice -1

Huh? My card's not an Audigy!! So, a quick look at the man pages on asoundconf lead me to run this command:

paul@paul-desktop:~$ asoundconf set-default-card 0
(note that I did not run this command with sudo rights...)
Ah, much better! :D


root@paul-desktop:~# cat .asoundrc.asoundconf
# ALSA library configuration file managed by asoundconf(1).
#
# MANUAL CHANGES TO THIS FILE WILL BE OVERWRITTEN!
#
# Manual changes to the ALSA library configuration should be implemented
# by editing the ~/.asoundrc file, not by editing this file.
!defaults.pcm.card 0
defaults.ctl.card 0
defaults.pcm.device 0
defaults.pcm.subdevice -1

Note that the default device is no longer Audigy, but device 0, as it should be. All that was left to do was right click on the speaker icon in the upper right, and set the default device to ICH #0, and everything is once again b-e-a-utiful!
Hope this helps someone.
:D

On adding the current user to the audio group -

when I do
grep 'audio' /etc/group

I see
audio:x:29:pulse

there isn't a user named pulse on this computer - is this refering to pulse audio? (Which after a purge and reinstall, why would pulse be indicated at all?)

and when I
sudo nano /etc/group

I don't have a line with 'audio' in it at all - should I add one, and if so what should it read?

-zami

::UPDATE::
Mucking about in that file was unnecessary. I have a soundcard with over 20 channels (for some inconceivable reason), that Ubuntu was detecting just fine, I just had to try, try, try again with all the volume control settings. All the wrong channels start off muted - that sort of nonsense.

Check to see if the ALSA driver for your sound card exists. Go to http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/ and search for your sound card (chipset) manufacturer in the dropdown box.

??? what dropdown box? i see no such thing

and sudo modprobe snd doesnt list anything

i guess to fix sound i'm gonna have to reinstall the OS for the 10th time

Hi guys,
I finally trashed vista from my pc (sonva vaio tt50B) it was too slow.
Now I am having some minor issues. One of them I would like to solve it.
It is the integrated mic. I cannot use it.
Moreover if I connect the headphone I still hear the sound from the speakers. I tried all the guides in the net....no changes.
as I have HDA intel sound card i followed the wiki on the alsa website but t does not work.

teo@teo:~$ cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec
Codec: Realtek ALC889
Codec: Intel G45 DEVCTG

Why I have 2?

@ilcontegis (http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=342251)

when you use alsamixer ( type alsamixer in the console ) you should be seeing a "headphone jack sense" tab which is toggled by pressing the "m" switch. For that matter, any of the settings in alsamixer are toggled by it.:guitar::-\"

One this is done, it will not play through the speaker and the headphone, it will play through either the speaker or the headphone

i have no answers to the hda sound card though. i am happy with my ac97 :lolflag:

After a very recent kernel update, (still says 2.6.27.11 though) I have no sound again. I had only just got it working but that is beside the point. I have been following this guide and have reached the point where it says to post a new thread in this thread?

I received an error during the the alsa source build, it occurred during the graphical part of the process but not sure which one, but no info given. I should point out that I have deleted any unnecessary items in the code above, ie not related to the sound card. Any help is much appreciated.

I don't know if this was already sad in the many posts before this one, but in my case I got the "aplay -l... No sound card found", but the problem
occurred because my user did not belong to the "audio" group.

Adding my username to the audio group (in /etc/group) and login in back
solved the problem.

Actually this problem occurred after a lot of tinkering I did following
other guides to solve other sound issues, so it is not a default problem
in my Intrepid instalation.

Paul: I'm in the same boat as you were, so I really want to do your fix. Problem is here:

I verified all the right modules were loaded:
[code]root@paul-desktop:~# lsmod|grep snd
snd_intel8x0 37532 0
snd_ac97_codec 111652 1 snd_intel8x0...
I got nothing:

user@user-desktop:/usr/src$
user@user-desktop:/usr/src$ cd /
user@user-desktop:/$ sudo lsmod|grep snd
user@user-desktop:/$
How should I do this step? Thanks!

Anyone running into this (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/358470) bug with the 180 modaliases update causing 173 and 177 to be removed (perhaps affecting those using the intel8x0 or ice1427 modules) will not be able to compile those modules as per this "Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide".

Hi Ian

Yo Julian it looks like there should be a file named "configure" in some directory, and that "./" would run it. I guess the question is what where should we be in the file system when we run this code.

HI Ian
I have managed to restore my sound now thanks. I merely changed my software sources to include "proposed updates" which allowed me to install a newer kernel. I was then able to find the sound card and set up up correctly. Thanks for your help.

That's an idea. I'll give it a whirl. If that doesn't work, I'll upgrade to Jaunty or downgrade to Hardy. Glad your sound is back!

edit: Julian's fix confirmed. I now have sound - yay!

Hi,

I find that if the Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack is enabled, I don't get any audio. If this is disabled, then analog audio works. I don't even have to restart the machine or logout/login or anything to see this.

Select the checkbox, sound stops working. Unselect, sound starts working right away.

I have an Audigy 2ZS and Logitech Z5500s. I have been on Hardy all this while, 'cos Intrepid was giving me a lot of sound related issues.

Any ideas on what I can try to do ? I would really like to get AC3 audio going to my speakers directly through S/PDIF.

Thanks.

hey,
im running an older dell desktop with an audigy 2 zs card, i had no sound even after completing all of the steps in the tutorial only to find out that the speakers worked when i put them in the headphone jack rather than the sound card itself. really weird, but i have sound from my media player but still cant get any sound from the internet, such as youtube, myspace, etc. any idea why this is?

Hey Ian I have the same problem as you no ./configure file found. Trying Julian's fix now to see if it works for me fingers crossed! I've been out of sound for 2 days. rebooting now

ok cool I just followed the instructions better and now looks like everything installed correctly but now it says

Setting up alsa-modules-2.6.28-11-generic (1.0.18.dfsg-1ubuntu8+2.6.28-11.42) ...
You should now stop all applications using sound devices
and reload all ALSA sound modules.

How do I do this? I have no apps running needing sound. SO I tried this and get the following error.

neo@thematrix:~$ sudo modprobe snd-
WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/oss-compat, it will be ignored in a future release.

What do I do now?

Hi LordRaiden,

First off, let me say that I have followed this guide a few times before for my other desktops but this is the first time I got really stuck.

I have a Dell Optiplex 170L I got for a teaching computer and did a clean install of Ubuntu 8.10. The only thing that is acting up on it is the audio. I have followed the guide through and through and have in fact done a clean install with different CD, just in case there was some bad bits from the previous one I downloaded, but no luck.

There is no device listed under sound preferences. But lspci gives me the device as:

00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 02)
Subsystem: Dell Device 0151
Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 17
I/O ports at ee00 [size=256]
I/O ports at edc0 [size=64]
Memory at feb7fa00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=512]
Memory at feb7f900 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=256]
Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2
Kernel modules: snd-intel8x0

I have done the fresh install first, but that failed so I moved on to the compiling from source and I got an error. Here is the last part of the log (I am not using module assistant).

/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/acore/info.c: In function ‘resize_info_buffer’:
/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/acore/info.c:90: error: implicit declaration of function ‘PAGE_ALIGN’
make[3]: *** [/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/acore/info.o] Error 1

make[1]: *** [_module_/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.27-11-generic'
make: *** [compile] Error 2


If you can point me in the right direction at least. I am 36 hours into this mini project and I'm running out of hair to pull out.

Thanks again.

Hi All, Please help, No sound on Ubuntu 8.10. How do I change the driver being used
with the intel sound card from HDA Generic to ALC888 as I think it should be ?
I say ALC888 should be the driver because my wife has a slightly different ASUS mobo and exact same Graphics card. Her aplay -l is very different than mine. all else is the same. Hers works, mine dosn't. Did work once, but not anymore. I got it to work with Suse 11 recent.y. I've checked all the obvious sound on, plugged in the right hole, vol control....

MotherBoard: ASUS P5Q SE2
has built in Sound card Intel Corporation 82801JI
Graphics card: Diamond Radeon HD 4350
has built in sound card: ATI Technologies Inc RV730XT
HDA Generic
. aplay -l shows the driver being used for the Intel (should be - primary card)
is HDA Generic.

These devices are identical on my wife's machine, both of us running ubuntu 8.10.
I will list all my info, lshw, lspci and aplay -l first. then hers. the only diff I see is her aplay -l output.

I recently created and fixed my own sound problem. I already had sound in amarok and was trying to make it work in firefox as well. I installed the flash-nonfree plugin through synaptic. I'm not entirely sure why. I didn't realize that it had caused any problems at the time since the sound in firefox had not previously been working.

This morning, I'm try to play music and nothing seems to work. After running through a bunch of different fixes to no avail, I remembered that I had installed the flash-nonfree plugin. I uninstalled it and immediately regained sound in amarok. Easy fix.

Now I just have to figure out why I'm getting my bass channel through my left and right speakers. Sounds terrible...

You're welcome, but as psyke mentioned this is a workaround and not a fix (the difference: you'll haveto do this every time your problem repeats, a fix would make the problem go away for good). If you have the time, please follow his instructions in this thread (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578) to really get your problem solved.

Right again, GepettoBR,

I was force-reloading alsa every couple of weeks... then when I updated to 9.04 that stopped working. So I came back here found your reply, and followed the instructions the link. So easy, and everything's working fine again.

Thanks.

Is it possible to somehow entirely remove pulse-audio and maintain working sound? I'm asking because wine keeps crashing due to it not supporting pulse audio properly.

First... Thanks for this guide. It is extremely helpful in getting ideas to fix problems. Unfortunately I did not see my problem.

I have a Dell Dimension 8300
It has a SB0243 (Audigy 2 Dell version)

Up until last week I was using Kubuntu (Hardy) version. I was able to use Audacity to record both streaming music and through the microphone.

But I could not get it to work using ALSA, I had to use OSS.

Last week I upgraded to 9.1 and switched to Ubuntu to get more sound, graphics, and video packages.

I did a fresh install.

I can use ALSA to play audio, but I can not record.

I tried using alsamixer from terminal. I made adjustments and still can not record anything.

I tried installing Ubuntu Studio to see if that could help.
It didn't.

My sound preferences are set:

Sound Events:
Sound playback: ALSA - Advanced Linux Sound Architecture

Music and Movies
Sound Playback: Autodetect

Audio Conferencing
Sound Playback: Autodetect
Sound Capture: ALSA - Advanced Linux Sound Architecture

Default Mixer Tracks
Device: Audigy 2 ZS(SB0353)

Note: In the drop down menu there is no option for SB0243.

I tried "Test" buttons and got sound on all sound playbacks, but did not get sound on "Sound Capture"

I also went to "Control Center" and clicked on "Multimedia Systems"

Under the Audio section
Default Input
Plugin: ALSA
Device: ADC Capture/Standard PCM Playback
Pipeline: alsasrc device="hw:0,0"

I tried changing the Device to "Default"
the pipeline changed to : alsasrs

I tried testing the sound by clicking the sound button, and got no sound.

In Audacity, I tried setting it up to work under OSS, and could not record or play audio.

I set both input and output to OSS:/dev/dsp and now I get an error that says
"Error while opening sound device. Please check the input device settings and the project sample rate."

When I have Audacity set up to use ALSA for input and output, I can import MP3 and other audio files into audacity and play them. I just can not record anything.

I wanted to record streams I have on my MD player which can only record by playing through my computer and capturing the sound as it is being played. I also want to be able to record using the microphone, and record streams on my system.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Thank you so much for your time and effort. But to no avail, the Solutions Guide did not solve the problem.

I cant believe this, but I am actually starting to lose confidence that this problem can be solved.

I will be contacting Elitegroup to see if I can get the updated drivers for the gf8200a mother board in conjuction with Linux, because my mackie onyx satelite audio interface will not install either.

The installation program keeps on telling me that I need to check my connections, which I have no idea what that means.

I am desperate to get this computer up and running. I really dont want to revert to windows.

PLEASE HELP.........I am open to anything!!!!

Problems:
1. sound coming out of the computer is overloaded (skipping and crackling). All of the sound controls ALSA & JACK are working.

2. trying to solve the problem with a audio interface firewire soundccard connection and back up does not work becasue the widows hardware installer is telling me that i need to check my connections, which means to me(but I dont know) that I need a firewire port or updated drivers. I have installed a firewire add-on card and still the check connections error message. So, I am guessing it must be my drivers and that is what I am going to persue.

I REALLY DONT WANT TO GO TO THE DARK SIDE AND USE WINDOWS BUT I DONT THINK I AM SMART ENOUGH TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.

PLEASE HELP, I FEEL THE FORCE IS STONG IN ME.

I have been trying to fix my sound for a while now. I went to the sound page and did the command to remove all these packages relating to ALSA then reinstalled them.

It said that sometimes this uninstalls gnome desktop or something so I ran a command to reinstall it.

I then rebooted and it wouldn't boot at all. I rebooted again and it gets to where there would be a login screen and all I see is a spinning cursor, the equivalent the the windows hour glass.

It tired press ctrl-alt-f1 and got a command prompt and did sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. This didn't help. I also tried typing startx but this didn't help as obviously its already running.

Any help would be great!

EDIT:
This is what I did exactly before restarting.

(1) Remove these packages
Code:
sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils

(2) Reinstall those same packages
Code:
sudo apt-get install linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils
[list]
VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: Ubuntu (GNOME) users have reported that packages 'gdm' and 'ubuntu-desktop' are removed after removing the linux-sound-base packages. If this happens, then do the following
Code:
sudo apt-get install gdm ubuntu-desktop

Maybee this isn't really for this threat but im not sure what else to do. I also posted on the general forums.

I messed up my sound good I think. I previously had sound working fine with the onboard sound card and drivers. I was messing around with JACK and it hung so I terminated it. Ever since then the sound is gone. The drivers are still installed correctly and I can use alsamixer. Everything is unmuted that should be and the levels are low but audible (to keep from killing my speakers). I've had no luck with anything in this guide as it doesn't pertain to me. I was using Ubuntu 8.10 when this initially started, and after a week of no sound decided to try to upgrade to 9.04. No luck there either.

One thing has helped, in alsa mixer I was muting/unmuting each channel individually with music playing in VLC. Nothing worked until I got to "Spread Front to Surround and Center/LFE". Unmuting it caused the sound to come out at a very high volume even tho alsamixers levels are low, and only comes out clear on one speaker, the other comes out very low and distorted. This was also the only way I could get sound in the sound preferences menu. I can't control the volume of anything in alsamixer.

Thanks very much,
As a complete novice to Linux I found this guide to be fantastic, comprehensive gave me some understanding as to what I am doing, and above all else it actually helped get my sound running.

Thanks again,

installing FlashBlock fixed the problem for me ... it was always related to flash screwing up the sound (flash-based invisible ads?)

I allow things like YouTube and sites I visit frequently. no problems since doing that.

Hi there.

Have you checked the settings for your card? Right click on the audio icon and have a look to see if it shows the correct device settings for headphone (eg. no muted, volume up loud enough, correct device chosen).

See how you go.

I'd like to get rid of some sound programs but I'm unsure how. I have two different sound preferences 1 in task bar one in awn. The one on my taskbar is the native one I believe. I right click it and get open volume controls and preferences among a host of other options. The one in awn dock I get sound preferences and mute once right clicked. When I open setting preferences I see two other sound options.

It appears that one of the sound options in settings>preferences once right clicked brings up the same sound preferences tab as the one in AWN. The other once right clicked brings up a sound preferences window with two tabs: Devices and sounds. Under Devices I have: Sound Events, Music and Movies, Audio Conferencing, and Default Mixer Tracks.

The First sound icon in settings>preferences brings up an identical sound preferences window that is brought up when I click the sound button on my awn tray. There are four tabs: Sounds Effects, Input, Output, and Applications.

I feel confused with so many sound options. I believe I ended up with so much trying to configure rosetta stone under wine and skype without wine.

Any help would be much appreciated in cleaning up this clutter.

Thanks,
Alex

I went through the troubleshooting guide at the beginning of this thread and got to the point where I was supposed to find my driver on the ALSA project web site. Sadly it was nowhere to be found. This is what lspci -v gave me for the audio device:

And this is was all that was listed on the ALSA site:

I tried using the via82xx driver anyway but with no luck. My alsa mixer was not muted but I still have no sound.

Currently my sound/video set up is running through HDMI to my TV. Sound comes in under ******* XP so I know it's not a hardware issue.

Am I out of luck?

Can I just pick up a cheap-o sound blaster or something and disable the onboard audio device?

Ubuntu 9.4 No sound after logging in. Before login, sound okay. Problem is pulseaudio

I know I have a user setting problem, I just don't know what it is. When I am ready to login, the computer makes a sound. So I know my hardware is good. Immediately after logging in, the computer makes a sound. That's okay. However, once I am completely logged in, no sound. I tried Amarok. I tried mplayer. I tried totem. I tried aplay. No sound.

I tried system -> preferences -> sound (which is the gnome-sound-properties program) and tested the sound system, no sound. I tried both the Alsa mixer and the pulse audio sound server. I futzed with amixer, no sound.

I tried deleting the .pulse directory and its contents. A new directory was created an populated. I don't see an .asoundrc file. I tried creating a new user, no sound.

I reviewed the comprehensive sound problems guide, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449, but to no avail.

I did a kill -2 PID on the pulseaudio process and the sound started working with mplayer, totem. aplayer just makes noise with an mpg, works fine with .wav.

What's wrong with pulseaudio that it breaks the sound? Is there a better solution than to put a killall -2 pulseaudio in my .bashrc file?

This evening, I did some more testing. I had no sound. I killed pulsedaudio. The sound started working, using totem. However, pulseaudio restarted, and yet the sound continued to work. Go figure.

So it appears I don't have access to the hardware...
What do I have to do in order to give myself access, whereby I could go on to the next step?

Hi,

I've just installed Ubuntu 9.04 on a first-generation Macbook Pro (1,2). Both the laptop speakers and headphones work, but I cannot for the life of me get the speakers to mute when I plug in headphones, automatically or manually.

I've tried specifying my sound card model in alsa-base.conf, and I've tried installing the GNOME ALSA Mixer (it shows no "headphone jack sense" option), among other things. I've searched far and wide for fixes for this problem and have not found one.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Hey, Nice guide.. tried all steps, but am still unable to get output on my rear speakers (plugged into the blue line-in jack) on my Ga G31 mobo (realtek 883 HD audio chip)

What else could I try?

Thanks!

Hi all!

At first, sorry for my poor english )

A have gigabyte motherboard on X38 chipset with ALC889A sound. Also i have audigy2 value (default card) and tv tuner AverTV 307. 5.1 sound goes through audigy on 5.1 speakers, sound from tv tuner - through integrated ALC889A on 2 small speakers (crazy system :D ). Everythink works fine and how i want ) But i want more.

The ALC889A provides support for 7.1 sound playback, plus 2 channels of independent stereo output (multiple streaming) through the front panel stereo outputs.
So, i want to use this independent audio out on the front panel for skype while watching TV :) But when i connect headphones, i hear the same sounds going though speakers. Gnome-volume-control has checkbox "headphone" which disables sound in headphones.
Seeking the problem i found next:

The independent extra PCM stream isn't implemented yet. You can have a 7.1-output to be duped to another jack, but not two individual streams.
Its bad. But the post date was in april 2008. Is it works now?

My system is Jaunty 64bit with latest updates. Using alsa, pulse is uninstalled. Also i am trying compile&install alsa 1.0.20, but nothing changes.

Thanks!

I have an Audigy 2 sound card that, after installing Jaunty, was being properly detected by Linux. However, after installing a Linksys WMP54G wireless NIC (My old one just simply wasn't cutting the mustard anymore), it still showed up in lspci, but my sound control panels and mixers all said I had no sound card. I ran dmesg, hoping to get some insight into the problem, and am listing the output here.

Ok, I don't understand why or how this worked, but switching the position of my Audigy 2 and my WMP54G in the physical PCI slots on my mainboard did the trick.

I guess that sometimes the simplest answer really IS the best, even in Linux. =)

Well, this might be long, but I'm going to tell you the story of my problem here, to see if you could help me out.

I'm using a Toshiba Satellite M45 S169, under the name of Amaterasu. It's an old but reliable computer that I absolutely love (If I talk bad about her, she might notices it, hehe). I was a Hardy user since the second that the distro came out, and I recently move myself to Jaunty, the second it was out as well, knowing that I might face some problems along the way.

And problems did came my way. Sound problems, as many others end up having. The point is that after a lot of things, like installing and unistalling the PulseAudio and it's features, and setting up the alsa-mixer and all, I end up in a point where I "had" sound.

That meant that I could hear music on RthythmBox (Amarok has never worked for me in Jaunty, not Amarok2, at least) and some times, even watch movies or see Youtube videos. But well, today an Upgrade Notification appeared and without doubt, I did it; it was supposed to upgraded the kernel, as well as the Linux Headers and Images. I upgraded, reboot and I had no sound at all. That kinda worried me, because I need at least music, you know?

Well, I followed then the instructions to upgrade to 1.0.20 (Stable), reboot and voila, had some sound, but just like before. Now, the problem with the kind of sound that I'm having right now is that several things can happen, depending on the first program that I use after turning on the computer. Something like this:

If RthythmBox: 100% of the time it works, but when I put it in pause, it might crash the sound and start this bell disturbing sound. If I resume the music, it would be back to normal. But it's almost certain that after turning RB, I'm not going to be able to watch videos on Youtube (Flash) or movies, either in Totem or VLC.

If Flash like Youtube or others: 75% might work. If it works, after a while of seeing videos and stuff, sound crash, almost inevitably. If this happens, then it would be the same as if it would crash with the VLC.

If VLC or Totem: 50% might or might now work. Sound would crash if it doesn't work and that means that I wouldn't be able to watch videos on flash. But, as I said before, the RB would work the same.

So, basically, the RB always works, and I don't know why. I love Jaunty, so I don't want to pass myself over to Hardy again, where this work all the time. I have upgraded, as I said, the driver, I have everything in Sound Preferences with ATI IXP (ALSA) and I have no PulseAudio at all. Any ideas of what I could do for having a better sound situation, of the type of being able to hear some music, stop it, then watch a movie, stop it, watch some Youtube videos, stop it, and go back to hear music again?

Here's my info:

Anything else you would need, just don't doubt to ask it, :smile:

P.S: Curiously enough, I installed this game called BurgerSpace, that's kinda funny and all. In Hardy, could play it with sound at all. Now, on Jaunty, right now, it says "Sound device not available". I don't have sound in other games, full screen or not, excepting with the pSX that works perfectly.

ED: Ok, tried to follow some instructions of this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=365342&page=2, for ATI IXP SB400 AC'97 Audio Controller, considering that after all, that's my sound card.

Did this:


#get rid of snd-atiixp-modem
blacklist snd-atiixp-modem

rather than just:

#get rid of snd-atiixp-modem
snd-atiixp-modem
$ sudo rmmod snd-atiixp-modem and this:


add to /etc/modprobe.d/options the line(s)

# for soundchip snd_atiixp
options snd-atiixp ac97_codec=0 And yes, things remain the same.

Any help, please? :)

Hi all,

I have a problem with the sound of my laptop, and being an absolute newbie to the world of Linux and Ubuntu, I'd appreciate any help on this.

I recently bought a new laptop - Acer Aspire 6530 - with dual-boot of Ubuntu 9.04 (64 bit) and Windows XP. I have a Realtek ALC888 soundcard on it. The problem I had was a very quiet sound from the beginning - I "fixed" that by typing alsamixer in the Terminal and turning everything up to the maximum.

My biggest issue is that the system ignores it when I plug in my headset. I'm also unable to set up my audio playback and input in Skype correctly.

I have downloaded the latest Realtek driver for Linux (LinuxPkg_5.11.tar.bz2) and ALSA driver (alsa-driver-1.0.20.tar.bz2) and followed the instructions in this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=550753&page=11

Not much noticeable difference, though...

Could please, please someone help me? :(

I have tried tons of post that I have been getting here and there, about the alsa.conf file, about changing the alsamixer settings, about changing everything to OSS in Preferences/Sounds, and things are exactly the same as described in my past post.

And still, the only thing that would always work is the RhthymBox. Does anybody knows why do flash videos crash and stop sounding, why I can't watch videos on VLC or Totem once in a while and why my games say that there's no Sound Device Avaiable, but the RhthymBox always work? Because I would love having my whole system to work like that program alone.

The Issue: No sound period. Using 8.04 Ubuntu. Error messages that don't make sense to me.

Here's what I did:
I did reinstall the gnome-alsa mixer, but still get the same error messages. I did install all of the support packages before reinstalling gnome-alsa mixer.
What am I doing wrong? Here is all the data I have. Also, if there is something in BIOS that needs to be enabled, can you give me some options as to where I might find whatever it is, and its name? I tried this before but didn't see anything to do with soundcards, etc. Thanks!

I get the following messages, and every message like it for every option in gnome-alsa mixer:

Bad key or directory name: "/apps/gnome-alsamixer/display_toggles/SigmaTel_STAC9708,11-AC97_2ch->4ch_Copy": `,' is an invalid character in key/directory names

It does bring some comfort that it is not just me that is having a problem... but I did find that my soundcard is not supported so yes I have in essence found why I have no sound. Don't worry I'm not willing to delete Ubuntu just because of sound! I'll just wait it out. How does my soundcard become compatible/supported for ALSA? (I hope I'm making sense here; I'm new to Ubuntu so I'm still learning all the terms).

Thanks everyone for your help and to the author of this guide, thank you!

I discovered that by booting 2.6.28-11-generic, instead of 2.6.28-13, my audio was restored, as long as I booted that kernel. I have another box with Asus P5N7A-VM MOBO, and this bug did not effect that machine. My AMD geforce 8200 will not play nice with 28-13 though. My sound card shows up in lspci, but aplay -l tells that I have no sound card.

It seems sound is still an inexact science. I wish the ubuntu team does something about it.

1. On my Dell Inspiron 1525 Laptop: No matter what I tried from this guide, it wouldn't work. But after a few updates (I wish I kept track what those were), it started working!! The next day, after a few more updates, gone!!

I then tried to remove the sound and alsa pkgs (as given in this guide) and now, it works! I use Ubuntu 9.04 2.6.28-13-generic #44 SMP x86_64 kernel.

I don't know when it will stop again. So fingers crossed.

My desktop machine is fit for a different post, to keep matters from getting confusing.

Configuring default soundcards / stopping multiple soundcards from switching


Note: This section assumes that you have installed each soundcard properly.



In a shell, type Code:
cat /proc/asound/modules





This will give the the name and index of each soundcard you have currently. Make a note of the names, and decide which one you want to be the default card.




Now type Code:
sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base





At the very end of the file, add the following (assuming you have 3 cards with module names A, B and C and you want to have them in the order CAB)

Code:
options snd-C index=0
options snd-A index=1
options snd-B index=2

Any guidance here? In case you haven't noticed, I'm a complete noob to the linux world(I'm trying to learn!) Thanks in advance....

One more thing. I think that when I was attempting to make this work in the console I created extra files. I exited out of the console "while a process is still running" like twice. In the modprobe.d file there are two files that I believe I inadvertently created: alsa-base.save & alsa-base.save.1. Tried deleting them and it says I dont have permission? Well I want permission cause I bought the d@mn computer. Somebody help!

On my HCL Desktop System: No sound yet.

I haven't figured out what AC97 is but I tried this one anyway...
cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
"options snd-intel8x0 ac97_quirk=3"
I reinstalled the sound and alsa packages (as given in this guide) several times.
No sound yet.

PS:
a) Yes, /etc/group has all my users in the group audio.
b) lspci -v shows kernel driver as Intel ICH and kernel module as: snd-intel8x0

I tried booting 2.6.28-11-generic too (as suggested), no sound yet.
I would appreciate any ideas. Thanks.

I just purchased a Toshiba NB200 and installed Ubuntu 9.04 in dual boot config with XP. Everything works perfectly in Ubuntu except there is no sound. I have tried your suggestions in the Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide v0.5e, but nothing seems to solve the problem.

aplay -l yields:

card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC272 Analog [ALC272 Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

and lspci -v | less yields:

00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)
Subsystem: Toshiba America Info Systems Device ff6e
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 22
Memory at f0440000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
Capabilities: <access denied>
Kernel driver in use: HDA Intel
Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel

I have removed & reinstalled pulse audio, tried various other suggestion I've found posted elsewhere and added "snd-hda-intel model=toshiba" to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf. I don't know what to do next. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I had similar trouble with my Dell Laptop (yes, your laptop could be different)... it mysteriously started working one-day (after some updates). I made a note of all configs and pkgs that I thought are relevant... so a few pointers from there that might help you:
1) cat /proc/asound/modules
-- on my laptop it shows just one line:
0 snd_hda_intel
2) grep audio /etc/group
-- should show a line with your user id as one of the members of the group "audio". (you may have already checked this from the guide)
3) pulseaudio: FWIW, I didn't touch this part. So if it is there and doing something, I don't even know :). In my System->Preferences->Sound, I use only autodetect for events & movies; and ALSA for audio-conferencing (playback and capture); and ALSA mixer for Mixer Device. I don't have any asound.conf in /etc/
4. My alsamixer settings: Master 100; PCM 100; Front 100; Surround Muted; Center Muted; LFE Muted; Side Muted; IEC95 8 Muted; IEC958 Playback Muted; Analog Loopback Muted; Digital Input Source Mic1; Swap Center/LFE Muted; (PC Speaker used to be there, but is now missing from the list)
Getting sound to work is a pain. So good luck with it! :)

Just installed jaunty, and I do not have any audio in my installation. It is a fresh install on my brand new HP pavillion dv5. Headphones are the only thing that works.

Here is the output of aplay -1

Bumping this post since I think it is ready to be used by people having trouble with sound. I'll do my best to field questions and make changes to this guide as needed. If you are an experienced Ubuntu user, please help out with testing, verifying, and helping people who use this guide.

Thanks in advance

I have been using my A31 Thinkpad since beginning 2003
I have gone through the pain of Windows, and I can tell you this @#$% with sound every update since 8.04 is absolutely as bad as anything Winblows ever "did" to me.
Un-be-luck-in-ievable.
My sound stopped working after 8.04
I spend hours getting it workking
It stops working again
If I could sacrifice small animals (or freakin large ones for that matter) to get this crap perm resolved I would
where is a good load of fire and brimstone when it;s needed
jeez
crackers
crap

i have no love for pulseaudio
it sits there and has little bouncin meters that sound is being picked up and no sound actually gets through the speakers
if I push the vol up/down the thinkpad dutifully beeps
when i boot, the system noises all tootle-e-ootle
but try pandora or last-- n a d a
I have had sound issues since after 8.04
tonight I tried
sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils
sudo apt-get install linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils
sudo apt-get install gdm ubuntu-desktop
then
sudo apt-get install gnome-alsamixer
gnome-alsamixer
looked at all the settings
checked/unchecked a few things...
maybe you'll find something that will work for you? (I did)
