It fixed my audio, thanks!

My problem was a popping/cracking sound when trying to play audio. I could still hear the audio but it was accompanied by loud, irritating clicks.

I have a Dell Vostro 1510 and adding options snd-hda-intel model=dell to the config file and restarting alsa worked like a charm!

Thanks again!

Edit: seems like I have no sound at all on YouTube video's . Music and Video on Totem work though.

I have an Acer Aspire 6935G and sounds works well, but no headphones


alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1
options snd-hda-intel model=auto
options snd-hda-intel single_cmd=1

HP Pavilion dv4-1210ef

The following settings at the end of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf enable correct sound through laptop speakers. The sound works after suspend and hibernate too:

options snd-hda-intel model=3stack-dig
options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1
options snd-hda-intel single_cmd=1

Thanks to all of you whose contribution helped me find a solution for my laptop!

Hi Mark,

I think this might be off topic a bit, but it has to do with trying out the options.

I'm executing the commands you showed us

sudo alsa force-reload

the output is this:
henry@henry-laptop:~$ sudo alsa force-reload
lsof: WARNING: can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon file system /home/henry/.gvfs

Does that mean the alsa is successfully reloaded?

Then the command

pulseaudio -D

gives this output
henry@henry-laptop:~$ pulseaudio -D

I: caps.c: Dropping root privileges.

I'm running laptop Compaq CQ40, and I'm curious if all the options mentioned are really necessary, thus trying them out one by one (total combination 120), but having to restart after combination is really too time consuming.

Please advise.

Hi Mark,

My laptop is Compaq Presario CQ40-324TU

While waiting for your reply, I played around with various combinations.
At first the one you mentioned works, ie

Compaq
Compaq CQ40 
options snd-pcsp index=-2
options snd slots=snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel model=hp-m4
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1

then I fiddled around, and for my case, this combo works as well, even the mic works, headphone works (speaker mutes automatically when headphone is plugged in)

Compaq
 Compaq CQ40 
 options snd-pcsp index=-2
 options snd slots=snd-hda-intel
 options snd-hda-intel model=hp-m4
#alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
#options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1

Hope this help for people in simiar situation.

Henry

unfortunately, CQ-40 settings didn't work for me
had the same set of error messages as gnulab

[theromanone]

Try inserting the following in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf:

options snd slots=snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel model=hp-m4
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel

from

http://ubuntuforums.org/newreply.php?do=newreply&p=7141145

worked perfect for my dv5, as the "options snd-hda-intel model=dv5" did nothing whatsoever in my case.

i then followed with the
killall pulseaudio

sudo alsa force-reload

pulseaudio -D

log out, log in, and voila! thanks!!

Well, I depend on people to report these things to me since I cannot afford to go out and buy every laptop there is. But someone said it worked with their CQ-40 so I have to take that on faith. Also, machine manufacturers often change the chips they use in the middle of a production run so there are many machines out their with the same label but different hardware. You probably hae CQ-40 ver.xxxxx rev.yyyyy that is different from the one reported.

All I can say, is try some of the options for similar machines or try upgrading ALSA. There are fixes coming all the time for specific hardware but not all of them can be backported to older alsa versions. Jnauty cam out with ALSA 1.0.18 and now 1.0.20 is out. If you do figure it out, please let me know.

Hi Guby,

You could try my settings, since my Compaq Presario CQ40 also reported it's using chipset IDT 92HD75B3X5
