Ran apt-get last night on my nVidia ION media center (running XBMC). Apt showed several updates to various X packages, all updated successfully. I shut the system down for the night.
Started it up this morning, and the resolution has been bolluxed, down to 640x480, but I can easily fix that later; XBMC still ran fine. Loaded up a cartoon for my toddler to watch, and found the audio was not working. Checked the settings in XBMC and nothing had changed. The little guy was getting antsy so I sent him upstairs to watch cartoons while I did some basic checks. Logged into my profile, went to Sound, and after some checking, found that none of the audio devices output any sound. I loaded up alsamixer and verified that none of the sound cards had been muted.
I'm pretty sure this is a fairly easy fix, but I'm not sure where to start. Aplay -l and lspci -v are normal; nothing has changed from before the update. I'm not sure if the snd-hda-intel module got unloaded, or if maybe an X configuration file got reset to default, or what.
What are a few things I can check?
