[ubuntu] No sound after upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04

[emanuel75]

Hello,

I have upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04 today and have a problem now: Sound isn't working anymore (both in Gnome and KDE). Changing the audio settings doesn't have any effect.

I am using an Asus P5QL Pro motherboard, sound is on board. Who can help ...?

Thanks a lot!

Did you look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449 ?
That might help isolate where the problem is.

Hi. Had the same problem. It's been solved by following the instruccions on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578

except that libao-pulse wasn't found, but tried the suggestion of libao2... and volia!

$ sudo apt-get install libasound2-plugins padevchooser libao2 libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio

voila!

Im having a similiar problem but even after following that guidline I get nothing. I keep getting an error from pulseaudio saying "Connection Failed: Connection Terminated"
It seems to have been installed but I cant get any sound out of my computer.

I have just installed 9.04 (reinstall rather than upgrade)

Thank you all very much! Pulseaudio brought sound back to my computer! The volume seems to be a bit lower than before but it works now.

To sb360: In my case using Benjamin's command line

$ sudo apt-get install libasound2-plugins padevchooser libao2 libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio

made the big difference. (Note that it 's different from the command line shown on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578) Maybe it helps you run your sound card too.

Thanks again!
