    HP dv7t-4100 Subwoofer not working

    The Subwoofer in my HP dv7t-4100 notebook doesn't work, I get very weak sound from the other small speakers and it sucks listening to music on the laptop without the headphones.

    I'm running ubuntu 11.10 and I believe it's not related to the BETA, this problem exist in ubuntu 11.04 on the same laptop.

    Use the alsa-info-script to provide detailed information.
    Run this command in a terminal:
    Code:
    wget http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh -O alsa-info.sh && bash alsa-info.sh
    Choose the upload option and provide a link for the output.
