    I have tried switching to the unkown proprietary driver and that did not fix it
    tried plugging into different ports to ensure it was not a coding issue
    and yes, volume is on... no speakers just headphones

    Not sure how to interpret this info.

    also checked the alsa site:
    http://www.alsa-project.org/main/ind...x:Vendor-Intel

    I progressed through a troubleshoot and it says that I may have found a bug. I submitted a bug report...

    will keep this thread posted on the results

    Re: Audio not working

    I had the genius idea of testing the front plug... BOOM! its fixed. would this still be considered a code issue?

    Did you check alsamixer had everything turned up?

    Everything was fine for a few months until I decided to move the computer to another room and upgrade to 7.10. I found that the sound no longer worked. This is when I discovered Ubuntu Forums. I asked for help and quickly learned all sorts of complicated linux stuff like compiling alsa and blacklisting modules, and how to partition and install an operating system.

    In the end it turned out that when I had moved the computer I had plugged the speakers into the blue hole instead of the green one.
