    Smile [Solved] nVidia drivers 280 hide my built-in sound card?

    Hi!
    (This is not really an Ubuntu issue, but since many people use Ubuntu and nVidia drivers, it might be relevant to post here anyway.)

    After a fresh install of Ubuntu 11.04 I follow the (non-standard) procedures to make a manual installation of the nVidia drivers, and run NVIDIA-Linux-x86-280.13.run.
    After reboot, the graphics works as expected, but my built-in sound card is no longer used.
    Instead, an nVidia sound device is used, but my GT240 does not have any sound capabilities (what I am aware of anyway).

    It is not listed with aplay -l, but it is listed when I run lspci | grep Audio.
    lshw reports my device as "UNCLAIMED".

    I have submitted some information below, which might be of relevance. I suspect it could be some kernel module conflict, but I have no clue how to fix it.

    If you could help me with this I would be very happy! I want my sound back, and I want it to come from my motherboard!
    (Below is selected output from: lspci, aplay, lsmod, lshw, dmesg)

    Edit:
    more /lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.alias | grep 'snd' | grep 'nv'
    give the line
    alias snd-hda-codec-nvhdmi snd_hda_codec_hdmi
    Can that give a clue to what to do?

    $lspci | grep Audio =>
    02:00.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation High Definition Audio Controller (rev a1)
    80:01.0 Audio device: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT1708/A [Azalia HDAC] (VIA High Definition Audio Controller) (rev 10)

    I want to use the bold one, but ALSA does not find it, so that's why I suspect some trouble with module loading.
