Fresh and new installation of Kubuntu 14.10. Same problem with some recent live dvd (ubuntu gnome 14.10 and others). This issue is not present with Ubuntu 14.04. My soundcard is Hercules "Game Theater XP 5.1".
Tried this command:
Code:
sudo alsa force-reload
output:
Code:
Unloading ALSA sound driver modules: snd-cs46xx snd-ac97-codec snd-pcm snd-seq-midi snd-seq-midi-event snd-rawmidi snd-seq snd-seq-device snd-timer.
Loading ALSA sound driver modules: snd-cs46xx snd-ac97-codec snd-pcm snd-seq-midi snd-seq-midi-event snd-rawmidi snd-seq snd-seq-device snd-timer.
So it seems ok to me.
I tried to uninstall and reinstall with these commands:
Code:
sudo apt-get remove --purge alsa-base pulseaudio
and
Code:
sudo apt-get install alsa-base pulseaudio
This is the output of the second command:
