I am new to Ubuntu, though I have a lot of experience with RedHat server systems (so never bothered with sound on those).
I have just installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on a system which has an MSI H61M-E23 motherboard (Intel core i3 processor). This has Realtek ALC887 sound on-board. Initially I had no HDMI sound output available but this was fixed by going through Step 1 of
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure
I still have a problem with sound input. Recording from the mic is very noisy and distorted and low volume.
I have checked the volume setting with the Gnome ALSA Mixer and all looks OK.
I have come across advice to find the model to use for the codec in
/usr/share/doc/alsa-base/driver/HD-Audio-Models.txt.gz
but ALC887 is not in there.
Can anyone point me to correct options to use in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf please?
