Background / Notes / Warnings
If you find that you have followed the instructions on this post that something did not and you don't know why, it will be better if you start a new post and cite the fact that you used the instructions on this guide to solve your problem. Your post might get lost in all the other posts and you might not get help.
If you however find a solution to your problem, and you fee that the solution should be here, don't hesistate to post. However, please be specific.
- If you cannot use hear anything, and you have just installed Ubuntu, then it could very possibly be a bug. It could be something as simple as not detecting your hardware the first time or evidence of a deeper problem. As fun as it is to find workarounds and fixes on your own or with help, Ubuntu developers need your feedback to see what is not working for you. That's right ladies and gentlemen, they would really really like it if you would file bug reports on http://launchpad.net under the Ubuntu distribution.
Note: To make it absolutely clear, when I say 'Ubuntu', I mean Ubuntu AND Kubuntu AND Xubuntu (for people who find this confusing - just accept it and don't feel bad - I and probably a whole lot others got confused when we started out).
Important syntax note: ALSA modules are denoted by the prefix 'snd' followed by the dash ' - ', followed by the module name (i.e. 'via82xx'). So the full name might be something like snd-via82xx. However, in some cases you will see an underscore ' _ ' instead of the dash. This is OK, do not let it confuse you. For all intensive purposes (installing modules or posting on forums) only use the dash ' - '.
General Help - Start here if you have no idea why sound is not playing
(1) Go to a shell and type: (2) Type this into the shell: Success - At this point, you should see your sound card listed. This is a positive sign because it means that Ubuntu is detecting the presence of your soundcard, but the drivers are not installed/running. Leave your shell running since you will need it.
(3) Check to see if the ALSA driver for your sound card exists. Go to http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/ and search for your sound card (chipset) manufacturer in the dropdown box. You'll be given a matrix of the sound cards made by the manufacturer. Try to match the chipset you found in step 2 with the driver(green hyperlink text).- Success - You will have found the driver for your soundcard's chipset.
(4) Now go back to the shell and type Now, press the TAB key BEFORE pressing the ENTER key to see a list of modules. Try to find the module that matches the driver you found in step 3.
For example, my driver is a via82xx so I would type, sudo modprobe snd-via82xx.Success
Type this into the shell
Code:
sudo nano /etc/modules
Play media using your favorite media player. Set your audio engine to alsa. In some cases, you have to configure your audio engine within another (media engine) like in Kaffiene in Kubuntu. If you hear sound, hurray!
One final step. Go onto Saving Sound Settings
- Failure -You have two options
- Move on to Getting the ALSA drivers from a *fresh* kernel. This step is easier and is recommended to users who might have been tinkering with their sound settings and want to revert back to the way it was just after installing Ubuntu (without reinstalling Ubuntu of course ;) )
Getting the ALSA drivers from a *fresh* kernel
Sometimes, sound might be configured correctly, but for some reason or another (tinkering) it stops working. One way to go back to the old setup is to reinstall Ubuntu. However, this step is actually quite unnecessary since you are reinstalling everything because of one thing.
A faster way, is to just remove the problematic packages and reinstall them cleanly.
(1) Remove these packages
Code:
sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils
(2) Reinstall those same packages
Code:
sudo apt-get install linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils
[LIST][*] VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: Ubuntu (GNOME) users have reported that packages 'gdm' and 'ubuntu-desktop' are removed after removing the linux-sound-base packages. If this happens, then do the following
Code:
sudo apt-get install gdm ubuntu-desktop
(3) Reboot [*][LEFT] VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: Xubuntu (XFCE) users have reported that packages 'gdm' and 'xubuntu-desktop' are removed after removing the linux-sound-base packages. If this happens, then do the following
Code:
sudo apt-get install gdm xubuntu-desktop
(3) Reboot
Now you may ask "I already had the packages, so why did I go through the trouble of removing them, then installing them". The answer lies in the --purge option which removes all the extra information that accumulated from tinkering and upgrading. After doing a purge then install, the packages are unpackaged as if it they are brand new.
(4) At this point, try using you should get your soundcard listed.- Success - Your soundcard is detected. Go onto the Using alsamixer section, then try playing something on your music or media player.
- Failure - Your card was not detected. You should try compiling your driver, so go onto ALSA drive Compilation.
ALSA driver Compilation
If you are here, then either your soundcard driver could not be loaded with modprobe, or you want to compile the drivers yourself from scratch. Good luck to you!
There are two main ways the sources of alsa-drivers are made available to you. One is though the apt-get system. Using this system would be the recommended system since most of the heavy lifting is done for you.
The other way, is getting the latest drivers from alsa-project.org. This page has the latest drivers available, which you might want to fix problems with. However, these have not been tested with Ubuntu and therefore should be used with caution.
Using alsa-source
Type the following to shell: (note: module-assistant is optional, it will compile the package for you)
Code:
sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r) module-assistant alsa-source
Code:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa-source
You now have a big blue dialog box (left and right keys to choose 'Yes' and 'No', Enter key proceed). Answer yes (for ISA-PNP - recommended by package maintainers), then yes again (for debugging - recommended by package maintainers).
Now you must pick which driver you want to install. Use space to select and deselect modules, and up and down to navigate.
From General Help step 3, you should know the name of your driver. Deselect 'all' (the * will go away), and select your driver. In my case, I deselected 'all' then selected 'via82xx'. Hit Enter. Almost home free!
If you chose module-assistant
Code:
sudo module-assistant a-i alsa-source
If the progress bar reaches 100% with no errors, you will have installed the drivers successfully. Resume this guide from General Help step 4. If you did not choose module-assistant - Remember the name of your soundcard driver and use it place of the blue text below.
Code:
cd /usr/src sudo tar xjvf alsa-driver.tar.bz2 cd modules/alsa-driver
Code:
sudo ./configure --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r) --with-cards=<enter driver name here e.g. via82xx> --with-oss=yes
sudo make
sudo make install
If you get no error messages, you will have installed the drivers successfully.- Success - Resume this guide from General Help step 4.
Using drivers from alsa-project - update I now recommend using the stable version 1.0.12
The alsa-project route is very similar to the alsa-source route without the module-assistant.
First you would have to get the alsa-driver tar from alsa-project then pretty much do configure, make and make install again.
However, I do recommend that you make a specific directory when you compile something from source. Remember the name of your soundcard driver and use it place of the blue text below.
Code:
mkdir src
cd src
mkdir alsa
cd alsa
sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r)
wget ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/drive....12rc2.tar.bz2
tar xvjf alsa-driver-1.0.12rc2.tar.bz2
cd alsa-driver-1.0.12rc1
sudo ./configure --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r) --with-cards=<enter driver name here e.g. via82xx> --with-oss=yes
sudo make
sudo make install
If you get no errors from doing the above then you have successfully compiled alsa-drivers from source. Resume this guide from General Help step 4.
Using alsamixer
You will now see what appears to be a graphical equalizer. It is more like ten different volume controls in the sample place.- To navigate around:
- Left and Right Arrow Keys - Move left and right (if you move long enough in one direction you will get back to where you started - you will not fall off the screen :lol:)
Up and Down Arrow Keys - Increase and decrease volume respectively.
Letter M Key - Mutes/unmutes. If a channel is unmuted, then there is a green box underneath the volume slider. If the channel is muted, the box is grey.
Saving Sound Settings
Do this step to ensure that your alsamixer settings are reloaded with each boot. First make sure you have your settings just the way you like them in alsamixer. Then do
Code:
sudo alsactl store 0
or if this is your nth sound card (where n is the number of soundcards in your computer) replace 0 with n-1. Many thanks to xpix for trying this out.-
Getting more than one application to use the soundcard at the same time
- You might want to play a game and listen to music on your favorite music player at the same time. To do this successfully, you will have to use ALSA since it supports this feature the best. On all the music players I know of, you can configure the sound engine, to any module that is available.
For games, it is a bit more tricky since there is not always a way to configure the player engine directly. Most games, however, do support the OSS. ALSA has an OSS module that allows OSS applications to use the ALSA driver.
Configuring default soundcards / stopping multiple soundcards from switching
Note: This section assumes that you have installed each soundcard properly.
In a shell, type
Code:
cat /proc/asound/modules
Now type
Code:
sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
Code:
options snd-C index=0options snd-A index=1
options snd-B index=2
Adding the current user to the audio group
A very common cause for a user to not have sound is not having his/her username in the /etc/group.
Thanks to rustybutt for this simple check.
Code:
grep 'audio' /etc/group
You should see a line similar to followed by a username i.e. if the username is "ubuntu" then you should see . If you see something else i.e. you should add your username to the file by doing
Code:
sudo nano /etc/group
. Now find the line that looks like and change it to
Code:
audio:x:29:root:moocow
only replacing moocow with your real username.
Hit CTRL + 0 to save, then CTRL + X to exit. That's the end of that :-D
Getting MIDI To Work - *EXPERIMENTAL*
This section assumes you can successfully hear sound from your soundcard.
First of all, make sure that you actually have a MIDI port on your soundcard. Most onboard soundcards do not have a MIDI port.
Next, open up this file:
Code:
sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
Then add this options line
Code:
options <snd module name here i.e. snd-via82xx> mpu_port=0x330
OR if you already have a options line for this soundcard add to the line.
The default MIDI port is 330. You should verify this number in your BIOS if you are not sure. If the number is not listed, it is most likely that the number is 330 (add the 0x for the file).
If you get no errors, you have successfully installed your MIDI port. At the moment, I do not know if any further configuration is necessary.
Miscellaneous Tips and Tricks
Here are a few things that other people have dug up over the course of this guide. Not all tips are meant to work for all hardware (believe me hda-intel will probably have like a mini guide of it's own one day).
Quote:
I wasn't getting any sound out of my Sony Vaio PCG-4B1L ...
Quote:
The crucial thing is to enable everything in alsamixer EXCEPT "external amplifier." (I had to turn off microphone too, to stop feedback).
- Useff had a very annoying problem where he could get sound through alsa from one user, but not through is main account. http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1221754. Him and I managed to fix the problem by making sure the main account was in the audio group in /etc/groups (which he was) and deleting the .asoundrc file in the main account's /home directory.
Bo Rosén solved his ISA problem the following way. Thanks to FarEast for his help in the matter.

Thanks to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=127402 this post I got soundblaster 16 isa working. In short add to /etc/modules then create a new file:
Code:
gedit /etc/modprobe.d/sound
and enter this line:
Code:
options snd-sb16 isapnp=0 port=0x220 irq=5 dma8=1 dma16=5
Code:
sudo update-modules
reboot
- webbca01 figured out how to get AC'97 work with the help of the second last post here and this post. Basically, if you have an intel8x0 module, you can get AC'97 working by
Code:
sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
and adding this as the last line:
Code:
"options snd-intel8x0 ac97_quirk=3"
Advanced Guides by other Ubuntuers
Important - no particular order
Getting MIDI to work
Compiling alsa entirely (drivers, utils, oss, etc)
Getting line input to work if it does not already - for microphones, etc.
Getting SPDIF output to work if it does not already - for amplifiers, speakers with digital in.
On the backburnerRelated
(I personally like the non-keytouch route - configuring xmodmap and then using gnome-keybindings or for KDE (System Settings >> Regional and Language Settings >> Keyboard Shortcuts). The xmodmap route also works for XFCE, but I do not how to configure XFCE application keybindings.

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Bumping this post since I think it is ready to be used by people having trouble with sound. I'll do my best to field questions and make changes to this guide as needed. If you are an experienced Ubuntu user, please help out with testing, verifying, and helping people who use this guide.
Thanks in advance

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Excellent. Thank you.
I had a problem with multiple card switching and reported it as a bug. Are options in alsa-base (also suggested to me on launchpad) workaround or solution? :-)
Im definitely interested in midi (new yamaha dx-305 sitting just next to pc).
-
Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Options in alsa-base would be a solution. alsa-base is a part of the official Ubuntu Repositories, so they would be considered a solution. The alsa-drivers from alsa-project would be considered a workaround until Ubuntu incorporates the official 1.0.11 stable into alsa-base.

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Excellent guide- I've just reinstalled Dapper, so I'll retry my sound issues with this guide, and see what happens.
**Update***
I went through the steps like you mentioned, and I believe it is working like it is supposed to. I'll post if I have more problems in another thread, but as of right now I'm getting 5.1 sound. The only problem I had was when I rebuilding the alsa drivers with alsa-source. The command "dpkg-reconfigure alsa-base" didn't produce anything- there was a pause at the prompt, then that was it. Something ran, but I got no feedback as to what it did. So I went through the steps with the module-assistant method, and so far so good.
Also, I never was able to get any output when I did "sudo modprobe snd-" and hit tab. So I went through with the loading the module anyway (my case it was snd-intel8x0). When I added that module to my /etc/modules file and rebooted, I believe that fixed it. However, when I checked to see if the module was loaded (lsmod | grep snd) the only thing I saw that was close to snd-intel8x0 was snd_intel8x0. Is there a different between using the - and the _ , or is it still the same module, and should I have added snd_intel8x0 to /etc/modules?
Thanks

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Wonderful!
If only all howto type things where broken down into the nice "tree" you made. (I'm refering to the succes/failure thing)
It was very easy to understand, even for a noob like me :)

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Tried it, and have yet to have success. I am using a Gigabyte nVidia nForce 4 motherboard, and the alsa-project has nothing set for it, or what I can make of it.
:confused:
-
Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Jvaldezjr - Thanks for the comments - you found an error in my instructions - it was supposed to read
Code:
sudo apt-get dpkg-reconfigure alsa-source
not alsa-base. In the alsa-project wiki, using a - and a _ are the same thing. They just appear in different areas.
ubuntu_demon - thanks for the comments and the sticky!!!
linish - glad I could help. Video gets a bit tricky and most of the work has been done. I might make a guide that links to all the relevant guides for ATI/NVIDIA/free drivers.
acorn22 - thanks for the comments. I tried to make it as new-user friendly as possible and I assume that the new-user has no previous knowledge whatsoever. This characteristic, IMO, makes the guide longer, but more thorough and less ambiguous.
starmartyr - I think your sound card driver is th intel8x0.

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
A nice guide, thank you.
By the way, what is the difference between, say, snd-ymfpci and snd_ymfpci or do they mean and work the same? (Sometimes those modules are written with "_" sometimes with "-" after snd). Does it matter if I do
sudo modprobe snd-
(or)
sudo modprobe snd_

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
I wonder what's my problem with my Hoontech YMF-754 soundcard? The soundcard worked without a problem in Ubuntu Breezy (etc.) but I've not managed to get it working in Dapper yet. Somewhere I read that there might be some small bug in Dapper sound?

I've unmuted all the channels in alsamixer (sudo alsamixer) and that was usually all I needed to do (in Breezy etc.) to get my sound working, including the digital output - but no joy yet. :(
I also added (both or the other):
snd-ymfpci
snd_ymfpci
at the end of my /etc/modules file but that doesn't seem to help either.:confused:
What's the problem Dapper is having with my soundcard? Everything works flawlessly in Breezy or in Debian Sarge, or in MS Windows too.

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
pinguinus - the dash/underscore thing is sort of weird to understand, but this is what I have been seeing. When loading the modules using modprobe, the dash is used. When displaying, the underscore is used. So for all intensive purposes, use the dash since it matters for input.
Regarding your soundcard, it seems installed so that does not seem like an issue.
Paste in the results of in a code box, and I'll see if anything is there.
ubuntu_demon - thank for the link in your blog, this page is really starting to get a lot of views.

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Thanks LordRaiden. By the way, I haven't yet tried the alsa-source method of your guide - because previously that was not needed. I just recently installed Ubuntu Dapper to this machine. I suppose I could try alsa-source too if nothing else helps.
Here's the output from dmesg (there was quite much ethernet related stuff that I removed from the output) :

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Seems ok. No sound errors as far as I can see. Yes, you could try the alsa-source method as well.
-
Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Just wanted to update you and tell you that your method has worked for me. I only have one more problem, but it has to do with input jacks on my onboard sound, so I'll ask in another thread since my hardware is detected, and the modules are loading correctly and working as it is supposed to.
Thanks for the guide, this rocks.
-
Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Jvaldezjr - Thanks for the comments, and I'm glad it worked for you. I'll put input down as an Important To-do item. Skype and Teamspeak are getting popular especially with Linux clients, so I should try to cover it. However, if you find something first, I'd like to include in the guide eventually giving the appropriate credit to all involved.
UPDATE - added a MIDI guide. Try it if you are interested. I have no idea of how to actually configure the MIDI device itself though (i.e. keyboard, joystick)

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Ok, I got my sound card problem, described above, solved. I did try alsa-source too (and learned new things in the process), but actually the solution was much simpler: heh.., I just needed to mute one certain channel in alsamixer... :oops: I could have sweared that I knew which alsamixer settings I had used before and that worked... But maybe I remembered wrong, or maybe that was some new setting there I hadn't sen before..??:o :oops: Anyway, I tried several alsamixer settings and found the one that worked for me, and now everything works perfectly again, also the digital output... \\:D/

Yeah, lol alsamixer is a mystery of it's own at time. BTW your card was a snd-ymfpci - [Yamaha DS-XG (YMF754)], what setting did you use to get it to work. I'll add it to the guide in case someone with similar problems experiences what you did.
-

From alsamixer I switched off / muted "IEC958 Loop" which did the trick Also "Mic Boost (+20dB)" needed to be muted / switched off in order to avoid noise. Other alsamixer settings could be kept unmuted. (Somehow I thought and remembered that it should have been some other settings muted / switched off - but maybe I had just forgotten...??)

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Thanks for the wonderful howto. I got successes all the way through - except the part where sound is supposed to come out of the speakers.
I'm trying to use the hda-intel driver, as aplay -l gave "card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: HDA Generic [HDA Generic]" as my sound card. I've even tried using the drivers from the alsa project with no luck.
I'm a bit stumped on where to go from here. Perhaps I've got the sound card wrong?
EDIT:
I've just noticed that there is quite a bit of discussion about this card on alsa-devel and it doesnt seem to have been resolved yet, so this is probably something that I'm going to have to wait for :P As a side note I'm using a Toshiba Satellite P100 and here is the bug report in alsa: https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/al...ew.php?id=2106
-
Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
I did a quick read of the notes section on the link you gave me.
Try this
open up /etc/modprobe.conf with a text editor (nano/gedit/kate)
paste in the following
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-card-0 index=0
options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=basic
remove snd-hda-intel { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 0 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-hda-intel
then save.
do a reboot. Then see what happens.

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
I wasn't getting any sound out of my Sony Vaio PCG-4B1L
I followed the instructions in this guide; I got as far as successfully installing/compiling the correct alsa-driver for my machine; I then as instructed went back to step 4, and in the terminal I typed "sudo modprobe snd-" followed by tab and enter.... And I still got the message back:
FATAL: Module snd_ not found.
just like I did before I did the compilation.
Finally, I found the answer here:
http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=153752&highlight=touchpad+sony.
The crucial thing is to enable everything in alsamixer EXCEPT "external amplifier." (I had to turn off microphone too, to stop feedback).
-
Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
It's really more like pressing TAB a few times. This way, you see the full list of modules beginning with prefix "snd-". You would problem get an error for just "snd-" because there is no module by that name.
However, it is very interesting that just having "External Amplifier" disabled worked for you. I'll add that to my guide and give you credit for it.

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Lord Raiden,
Excellent post, but I have an odd problem. I am running amd64 on an ASUS a8n motherboard with a built in soundcard.
lspci -v is the following:
0000:00:04.0 Multimedia audio controller: nVidia Corporation CK804 AC'97 Audio Controller (rev a2)
Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. K8N4-E Mainboard
Flags: bus master, 66MHz, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 225

Memory at d5003000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
Capabilities: <available only to root>
OK, I have surround sound speakers and only three of the six speakers work. (Left, Right,
Subwoofer). The other speakers don't work (Left rear, Right rear, Center speaker). They are not muted and I ran:
speaker-test -c6 -Dplug:surround51
and got white noise out of four of my speakers (Left, Right, Left Rear, Right Rear) and two didn't work (Subwoofer, and Center speaker).
The three speakers playback fine for both audio, video, mp3 anything. I guess I am a little greedy on wanting the others to work.
Any suggestions?
Slurm

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Thanks for this Lord Raiden, guys like you take alot of frustration out of setting up things like this in Linux
My problem is the sharing of the soundcard! Why is it that some programs can share the card and others can't? for example if I'm playing an mp3 on xmms, Gaim's sounds still come through OK but if i run say xmame, no sound! and vice versa also (sound xmame,no sound xmms!!) Is there no way aound this other than alsa-oss? I always thought ALSA was supposed to address this issue..
Im on amd64-64bit Ubuntu BTW
-
Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Slurm - Not greedy at all. Hmm.. you have checked alsamixer for the channel settings I suppose. Maybe a 5.1 setting? Also, remember to get any music player application to actually use 5.1. For example, I use amarok, and I can select my speaker set up from a dropdown box. I'll have to look into 5.1 or my guide (natural progression lol - getting soundcard to work --> getting 5.1 to work)
Number6 - make sure xmame is using alsa (if it can). ALSA lets applications share the soundcard whereas OSS does not. alsa-oss does address the issue the alsa way since alsa-oss is an alsa project. It is fine to use alsa-oss to get xmame to work (very little overhead if any).

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
ok I have sound working so far but it came some how its garble out

options snd-card-0 index=0
options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=basic
remove snd-hda-intel { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 0 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-hda-intel
then save.
do a reboot. Then see what happens.
Thanks for taking the time to look over that. Unfortunately I still dont hear any sound. It might be woth mentioning that under the playback section in alsamixer I now only see a PCM bar and nothing else, whereas I used to have a master bar as well.
(I may have that name wrong, but there was definitely another one)
Is there any more diagnosis that I can do to nail down the problem?

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
tlaloczint - I would not know why it would be garbled out? Did you follow my guide? If you did, I would suggest filing a bug in alsa-project since they would better understand and are better able to to deal with that sort of problem.
pinballkid - check in your home directory whether or not you have a .asoundrc file (it's hidden). Assuming that aplay -l works your card is installed. But I am sure that other hda-intel users would at least get the Master volume and not just PCM. Did you get any warnings or errors at all?

Just a few notes while I'm going through this:
aplay -l works and returns this:
Code:
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: HDA Generic [HDA Generic]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
.asoundrc exists and contains the following:
Code:
Names of available sound cards:
Intel
stephen@stephen:~/pystarburst$ cat /home/stephen/.asoundrc
pcm.hda-intel {
type hw
card 0
}
ctl.hda-intel {
type hw
card 0
}
however, "asoundconf list" shows that there is an "Intel" card, but asoundconf is-active returns nothing.
Unfortunately I havn't noticed any warnings along the way in your tutorial, but I'm considering starting again to see if I catch any the second time round. Once again thanks for all the effort reading through other people's problems!

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Thank you again your Lordship for this help. I am using XMMS for playbac of files and I cannot find anywhere on their screen whether it supports surround5.1. Do you know if XMMS supports it and where I can make sure that it is optimized for surround?
But I also now have a newbie question for your. I went back to alsamixer and unmuted the button labelled 'duplicate' and lo and behold 5 out of six speakers are now working. Obviously the left rear and right rear are now duplicated what is coming out of the left and right speaker. (Newbie question warning) Is this duplicate the same as SurroundSound? I feel dumb asking this because is should not be. Then the next question is should I mute this and try to solve it in some other way.
At least I know that all speakers (except the center one) CAN work with the built in sound card.
Thanks again.

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
pinballkid - delete the .asoundrc file, then reboot and try again.
Slurm - I wouldn't know if duplicate means Surround Sound, but like you say it should not. Try using the suggestion here http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/sus...und-sound.html
post back if it works and i'll add it to my guide.

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Hi everyone.. just wanted to let you all know how I got my SPDIF sound working w/ my VIA8237 chipset in Kubuntu Dapper:
First, I brought the 'IEC958 Playback AC97-SP5A' fader in KMix (or alsamixser) all the way down to 0. I read in another thread that if it wasn't like this, it wouldn't work.
Next, I performed 'speaker-test -c6 -Dplug:surround51' .. when I looked at my Sony receiver it displayed the 'OPT' indicator.
Then, I control-c'd speaker-test and attempted to play 50 Cent's 'In Da Club' (not that that has anything to do with getting sound working.. just thought you would like to know :)) in Kaffeine.
It was very low (had to turn the receiver up to MAX to hear it), but that was fixed when I adjusted the 'VIA DXS' fader in KMix.
This was all done using a fresh install of Kubuntu. I'm using an Asus KV8 mobo w/ AMD64. I haven't actually rebooted since doing these things, so this might just be a temporary fix. Hope this helps.
Edit:
I rebooted and everything seems to be as it was. THe sound is working from Kaffeine, systems sounds, even from firefox's flash plugin (thanks Russian Girls, on Google VIdeo!)

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
I've removed .asoundrc as you suggested and I am seeing one difference: when I start gnome-sound-properties now HDA-Intel appears under 'default sound card'. Unfortunately alsa-mixer still only shows PCM and there is still no sound, but I feel like I'm getting somewhere ;)

Re: Please help get the sound working again!
Hi!
I followed your guide, it's very easy to follow for a newbie like me. In Breezy the sound worked perfectly, but when I upgraded to Dapper I got several problems, and the sound is one of them. I get stuck afte I installed the sound module and have to go to point 4 again sudo modprobe snd- gives nothing with TAB, if I fill in the used driver like this (sudo modprobe snd-intel8x0) it gives no output at all.
It does seem to load the sound driver into memory ( cat /proc/asound/modules gives the following output:
0 snd_intel8x0
1 snd_mpu401)
But it cannot find my soundcard. aplay -l gives:
aplay: device_list:221: no soundcards found...
I don't know what to make of this. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
here are a few outputs that might give a clue:

I think the soundcard is recognized, but I am not sure!
I post here the output of dmesg also, it might help.
As you can see, there is more on my system that is not working (especially my usb Lexmark printer). But that is probably off-topic here (except if it is related, somehow)

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
pinballkid - keep at it. I think you are close.
ivuntu - paste results of the command here.
I will add a section to my guide about how to reinstall and the kernel modules using apt-get from scratch soon.
I also would like some feedback about the MIDI guide. Is it working for anyone of you? Any things you think I should add?

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
[QUOTE=LordRaiden;1231407]tlaloczint - I would not know why it would be garbled out? Did you follow my guide? If you did, I would suggest filing a bug in alsa-project since they would better understand and are better able to to deal with that sort of problem.
yep I did fowollow your guide and after a few reboots (my wife use xp for gaming) all started to sound better and now its good really good I really don`t know what was it but thanks this is the first time I make a soundblaster work that good ( with your guide of curse)
thanks keep the good job

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Great guide! i'm a newbie and am having probs with my soud card, went up to step 2 but ubuntu seems not to recognize the card (integrated) i went to the bios and everything seems ok, it works on XP (which i have in a totaly separate hdrive) also, tried researching what my sound card was and i think its a Crystal 4237b (found at dells by searching for my system Presicion 410 Pentium 3), any idea on what should i do next? -thanks for your time>

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Whew.....my sound works....thanks sooooo much....nice tutorial. I'm starting to think I might really be able to do this whole Linux thing. My husband has stopped laughing at me and my kids don't call it "broken" anymore...lol. I think I'm getting somewhere.

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Could somebody explain how I would go about applying a patch to ALSA? I have a problem with low sound capture levels, and somebody posted a patch on the bugtracking site, but I have no idea what to do with it. Is this process too difficult for a Linux newb?

it works!!!! Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
After I upgraded to Dapper, my soundcard just stopped working. After doing lots of research I was really excited to find this guide. The compile went smoothly, but no sound. So I spent a couple of weeks trying things, without much success. I decided to start from the beginning. I uninstalled linux-sound-base, alsa-base, and alsa-utils.
Reinstalled them and did:
modprobe snd-[TAB], that didn't yield anything, so i did,
modprobe snd-pcm-oss
modprobe snd-mixer-oss
modprobe snd-seq-oss
modprobe snd-DRIVER (in my case it's snd-ens1371)
then i unmuted the main channel in alsamixer and it worked.
The problem i have now is that i have to repeat all the modprobe stuff after reboot. I wrote a script so that it's just one command, but i would still like to have them load at boot. Is that possible, or do i have to stick with the script?

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
hda-intel seems to be pretty notorious on ubuntu. Anyone know if the ubuntu team plans to provide a fix for it? (still no luck here)

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
My sound is working just fine , but I cannot get the multimedia keys on my Sony Vaio VGN-FE550G to control all app's . I have to control volume via the app , or ALSA . I would like to have the multimedia volume key's as the master volume which I am accustomed to .
-
Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
I followed your instructions in section "stopping multiple soundcards from switching" - and it did exactly what is was supposed to do :)
(My soundcard and my usb-headset were switching)
Tanks a million for your guide!
ro314
PS: Maybe you could mention the "dash/underscore-thing" in this section of the guide?
-
Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
I've been following the guide until now, but when i try the command sudo alsamixer, an error appears in the console:
Quote:
ALSA lib simple_none.c:1216:(simple_add1) helem (MIXER,'Front Playback Volume',0,0,0) appears twice or more
alsamixer: function snd_mixer_load failed: Invalid argument
I'm a newbie in Ubuntu, so I don't know how to solve this problem. Can you give me a hand?;)

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Bmbshl, ivuntu, & tlaloczint - Congratulations on getting it to work!
Juan Orozco & Zacrifyer - Your driver is snd-cs4236 driver. I recommend you try compiling that from source using my guide.
foxhound_oki - Your soundcard seems to use the snd-via82xx . I recommend you try compiling that from source using my guide.
gratefultux - Do
Code:
sudo nano /etc/modules
Add the line 'snd-ens1371' to after the last line in the file (you will only need this one line). Save the file, then do a reboot. The module should get loaded on boot. So it worked without touching the kernel? Great! I'll remove the part about it now.
pinballkid - the Ubuntu team does not work on alsa directly (maybe committing a patches). You should report your issue as a bug and they will be able to give you a solution. (The people who support the hda-intel driver get a bit busy so don't be worried if you don't get a response right away).
nobodysdarling - I have a link to the multimediakeys guide in the USDF at the bottom of my guide. Have a look, I successfully managed to configure my multimedia keyboard with using it.
ro314 - Congratulations and I'll add the dash-underscore thing in my guide.
deathseeker25 - I suggest you try the *fresh* install section near the end of my guide. (It's not really a reinstall so no worries).

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Sweet, my sound works now.

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Thanks to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=127402 this post I got soundblaster 16 isa working.
In short add
to /etc/modules
then create a new file:
Code:
gedit /etc/modprobe.d/sound
and enter this line:
Code:
options snd-sb16 isapnp=0 port=0x220 irq=5 dma8=1 dma16=5
EDIT: Then
Code:
sudo update-modules
reboot

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
gratefultux & Zacrifyer - Congrats on getting it to work.
Bo Rosén - I'll add your instructions to the Miscellaneous section in my guide and give you credit it for it.

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Credit should probably go to FarEast whose instructions I stole from the thread I mentioned

:-( Sorry to hear that. All I can say is that it worked for me.
Hm, looking at the instructions again from FarEast I see I forgot to add that you should
Code:
sudo update-modules
before rebooting.:oops:
I'm really sorry if this caused your problems, though it seems a bit strange if it could make the whole desktop go awol. Strangers things have happened though. Hope you manage to fix it.

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
It's ok. I had to reinstall gdm, gnome, nautilus an a mess of other things. I think I'll try to fix my sound when I get a new sound card cause it's been giving me problems ever since i upgraded to Dapper.

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
I'm having trouble with my sound card in that its not coming out as loud as it should. What I mean is that when I twirl the dial to max sound comes out as just "average' instead of "omg my ears are going to blow!' (lol) know what I mean?
When I tried to use this guide to see if I could find the problem, I ran into another one; after typing in "aplay -" terminal doesn't respond with aything. Just sits there with the blinking cursor on the next line down and won't respond to any other commands save for ctrl+c.
I set all the volume bars in Linux to full (the options brought up by clicking the speaker in the corner and the volume bars within the music players) so I know its not that. Thanks in advance for the help :)
-
Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Well, as long as your sound works, i guess aplay doesn't like you ;) .
Try turning up the master volume in alsamixer to get more sound.
-
Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
I've got no sound and I'm trying to use this Guide to get it back
~$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****

So I figure everything should work - right, but nothing gives me sound. When I type in alsamixer everything is turned on (except ext amp, aux, and the mic). Can anyone help me get my sound working. I'm really new so I don't know if there is a conf problem that I need to fix or what. I'd love an auto fix, but easyubuntu or automatix hasn't helped any at all. Please help.

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
jonjpeterson - use the *fresh* kernel method in my guide. It worked best for me.
-
Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Don't know if this will help anyone, but I had problems getting sound to play through MPD. it would always come back saying it couldn't open the sound driver (or equivalent..)
So i went through this post and everything looked ok. my card seemed to be recognised and set up. (aplay -l came out positive)
But as soon as I told MPD to play. the card wouldn't be loaded anymore (aplay -l would say no devices found).
I didn't try to run anyother music programs to try to see if it was only MPD (the machine I was doing this on is literally a box siting next to the stereo , no keyboard or monitor, everything done via SSH...).
So here I was tearing my dreadlocks out, when I read a little sentence in someone's blog... "make sure your audio program (that uses alsa) is part of the audio users group.."
light bulb went up, and after a judicious :
sudo adduser mpd audio
it all worked perfectly. :-D
This post is probably no quite in the right place (not a hardware issue) but I thought I'd share this incase someone out there is having similar problems...
-D.I.F-
PS - This is only good because MPD was runing as its own user (mpd). if you are just trying to run progs through your normal user, check if your user is in the audio group... (nice GUI for it in GNome somewhere)...

Yes. This happened here too. I was ablo to fix it by running this commands:
sudo apt-get install gdm
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
A warning has to be added in the first post of this topic, not everyone will be able to restore their Ubuntu desktop.
-
Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Thanks for the help provided by this thread, I used the "fresh kernel" method, though I must add that I also second the notion that you must include the warning about having to reinstall the whole gdm and Gnome stuff. In my case I had to run:
Code:
sudo apt-get install gdm gnome-applets gnome-control-center gnome-panel
gnome-session gnome-terminal nautilus ubuntu-base ubuntu-desktop
ubuntu-minimal linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils
as all of that was uninstalled by purging/removing linux-sound-base, alsa-base and alsa-utils. :-k
On a side note I want to add that I had a previous working installation of Dapper running on a dedicated 20Gb ATA drive, which run as slave of DVD-R drive, with ******* running on a Master ATA drive - all of this based on a PIII-933 machine with an Intel 815 mobo. Installation was a breeze then and everything ran out of the box.
Now this time around I built a whole new machine, PD-805 (2,66) with an Intel 945Gtp mobo and a SATA drive with two partitions, one for Windowz and the other one for Ubuntu and, unfortunately, things haven't been that smooth now - I've had trouble with Grub, with the video and now with the sound... ](*,)
Anyway, what really matters is that, in the end, everything gets fixed, with a lot of help from the mates here at Ubuntu Forums, so thanks a lot to all of you!!! :D

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
That's odd. I did the clean kernel thing as well, and nothing was uninstalled. I'm using Kubuntu, but that shouldn't make a difference. Did it tell any of you that it was uninstalling any other packages?
-
Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Okay I did the new kernal. Like others I lost gdm and the desktop (thanks Renko for getting that up and running again). I still have no sound though, so what's the next step if I put in a whole new kernal. Should I continue to follow the steps in this guide even though I have success right from ~$ aplay -

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Hi there-
I am running Dapper Drake on an AMD64 CPU. Sound works okay...BUT.....I have an M-Audio Revolution 7.1. I can get the sound to play out of my SPDIF connection, and Skype will use the regular audio out. Does ANYONE know how I can get the sound to come out of BOTH the Analog AND Digital OUTS???
Thanks everyone,

Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
I'm trying to follow the guide step by step and after I do the dpkg-reconfigure alsa-source I type in the following and get
:~$ sudo ./configure --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r) --with-cards=via82xx --with-oss=yes
sudo: ./configure: command not found
I don't know if I changed the command wrong or wheather I was supposed to make other changes as well.
-
Re: Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide
Renko - I'm running Kubuntu so I did not get gdm or ubuntu-desktop removed. I'll put in the warnning but I think this a gdm and ubuntu-desktop should not depend on any of the packages I ask to remove (they really are not related).
jonjpeterson - if you have success from aplay then there is no need to do anything after the *fresh* install.

When I try sudo modprobe snd-via82xx it doesn't seem to do anything:
Code:
stephen@chook-n-coop:~$ sudo modprobe snd-via82xx

I've opened alsamixer and made sure the that the volume was turned up and the output was not muted. Still nothing.
I followed the steps in the Getting the ALSA drivers from a *fresh* kernel section. I used to following commands:
Code:
sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-uti
sudo apt-get install linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils
sudo apt-get install gdm ubuntu-desktop
I then reboot (multiple times) and checked alsamixer again. Still no sound. I have also followed the steps in the section ALSA driver Compilation.
What else can I do?
