Based on your symptoms at this point I would say either something wrong with the motherboard, or maybe a bug with the BIOS.
You could try see if the BIOS settings for the integrated sound card can be altered. Here's what I suspect: there is a setting such as "HD Audio Codec" or something that is set to "Auto". Try see if you can just set it to "Enabled". This is based on the idea that for some reason your system thinks it has another sound card and disables the on-board audio.
Just a thought.
Hi, the output is:
Code:
ema@darklady:~$ cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [SB ]: HDA-Intel - HDA ATI SB
HDA ATI SB at 0xfbff8000 irq 16
1 [Headset ]: USB-Audio - Logitech USB Headset
Logitech Logitech USB Headset at usb-0000:00:12.0-2, full speed
My motherboard is an ASUSTeK M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3.
In the BIOS the setting for internal audio is Enabled (and it says front device AC97 - which is chones - or I could use HD Audio).
What do you think?
Should I update the BIOS?
Cheers,
