I have a inspiron 530 dell which i upgraded the ram to 4g and bought a ssd hard drive. It was working ok with sound on LTS16.04. I upgraded to 18.04 with the SSD and was impressed how quick it was using a complete fresh install. The only problem was no sound. The card is there and the controls are there, I can see that the sound is coming from the card using some of the commands but am not able to understand if this is a configuration issue or a bug?
Could you help me to determine what the issue is? I found the following that i carried out.
in the settings the sound card is set as "dummy Output"
is this correct?
