Via vt1705

[nsathees]

Hi,
I have changed my motherboard from ASUS to ASROCK. The ASUS motherboard came with VT1708 sound chip and the ASROCK comes with 1705.

The system works without a glitch except the sound.

I have sound playback but the volume level is very low and if I connect the microphone It makes terrible noise. I check the driver is still for the VT1708

here is the output http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=45...f22ec8944e76fd

Is there any driver for 1705 HD Audio codec (5.1)?

How can I handle this problem?

I have found one tread on this issue and that wasn't solved. I don't have the luxury of getting a sound card or another motherboard.

Please help as my job requires me to communicate via skype.

Thank you!

The patches should be applied in latest snapshot. Try updating your alsa-driver-modules.
Using a Terminal="Applications->Accessories->Terminal"
Add the ubuntu-audio-dev ppa:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/ppa
sudo apt-get update

Now install:

sudo apt-get install linux-alsa-driver-modules-$(uname -r)

Reboot
Go to "System ->Preferences ->Sound" and make sure the correct soundcard is default and adjust your profile on the hardware tab.
On the output tab choose the correct device.
Check your levels in alsamixer.

 alsamixer

Press <F6> to select the correct soundcard.
Press <F3> to show playback levels. <F4> selects capture levels [or use <Tab>]
Use the left/right arrow keys to select and up/down arrow keys to change levels. <M> to mute/unmute.

Reverse the previous change:

sudo apt-get remove linux-alsa-driver-modules-$(uname -r)

Try this PPA:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/alsa-daily
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install alsa-hda-dkms

Then restart. If it still does not work, please provide alsa-info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/AlsaInfo
