Hey guys, long time reader, first time poster...
I was having some issues with sound on a server backup machine that I have set up with rsync to run at boot and mirror the files on my server and until now, that has been it's sole purpose.
I recently moved it into another spot where it can also be used as a mythtv frontend. So I install the necessary packages and when I went to run MythTV, there was no sound :frown:
After doing lots of ALSA and Pulse troubleshooting, I realised that I had the Sound card disabled in BIOS #-o Genius, I know. I must have turned it off for some strange reason.
Anyway, after enabling it again, there is still no sound. I assume this is because there was no sound detected when Ubuntu was installed, so no sound driver was compiled.
I did some more trouble shooting and even upgraded to the latest Kernel, but it didn't fix the sound problem.
This isn't life and death, I can reinstall or use another machine, but I was really like to make this a multifunction machine and hope there is a quick fix.
It's an Intel Motherboard
