Thanks so much for the script Biasquez and Soundcheck. Just buy running this script I got the sound on my Dell Vostro 420 to work with Kubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope.

Great work.

arrrrrg... I still have the same problem with Digital INPUT on realtek ALC888 (intel hda). Absolutly no sound is heard from SPDIF INPUT. Version 1.0.20 didn't solve my problem

support for kernel 2.6.29?
can i just replace "2.6.28" to "2.6.29" in the script?
thanks

I reinstalled my OS this afternoon and oddly my sound wasn't working like it was just a few hours ago. I redid everything just like I did before but this time I get no sound just like I did before I ran the upgrade script found in this thread.

This time I poked around for a while and did some different stuff I eventually stumbled upon the solution in alsamixer.

I have 5 loopback devices on the sound card displayed in alsamixer:
Analog Loopback
Analog Loopback 1
Analog Loopback 2
Analog Loopback 3
Analog Loopback 4

I'm not sure what the purpose of these devices are but I muted them and now the sound works, just like that.

Actually I just muted "Analog Loopback" the others made no difference at all from what I could see, but I muted them all for good measure. Hope this helps someone out there. I didn't think to mute them or unmute them I was just hitting buttons in alsamixer hoping to make a difference and then boom sound works.

Thanks again for your script.

On a side note the distribution that i'm using (XBMC Live) doesn't have wget installed by default so I had to manually install that cause the script doesn't check to see if it's there or not before attempting to use it.

Ocean4200, I am in the same situation. As soon as I have a fix, I'll post it here.
