No sound on Resume in 11.10 -"In Monitor" Switches Off

[enseyn]

Okay. I have a Turtle Beach RIVIERA PCI Sound Card. After resuming from Suspend or Hibernate "S/PDIF In Monitor" is switched off. This causes the speakers on my computer desk to stop working, but the surround sound system for the TV does still work.

I also had this problem in 11.04, but it was easier to fix with gnome-alsa-mixer. Now I have to open up alsamixer in terminal to turn my speakers back on.

Any solution to this or work around would be much appreciated.

Also, I should say that in 11.04 the sound would be muted on resume as well.

FIXED IT!!!
Okay, I used This guide and combined a couple parts to get it working.

I used this part:

Getting ALSA to work after suspend / hibernate

Some soundcards does not work after the computer has been suspended or hibernated. Files in /etc/pm/sleep.d/ are read when the system is entering or leaving suspend mode. Create a file telling the system to restart alsa when the computer is being brought up from suspended mode to make the audio work again.

The command /sbin/alsa force-reload will kill all running programs using the sound driver so the driver itself is able to be restarted.

sudo nano /etc/pm/sleep.d/50alsa

case "$1" in
hibernate|suspend)
# Stopping is not required
;;
thaw|resume)
/sbin/alsa force-reload
;;
*) exit $NA
;;
esac

Make the newly created script to be executable with the following command:

sudo chmod +x /etc/pm/sleep.d/50alsa

At first it didnt work, but then I thought, Why am I not just reloading the settings with alsactl? So I changed /etc/pm/sleep.d/50alsa to this:

case "$1" in
hibernate|suspend)
# Stopping is not required
;;
thaw|resume)
/sbin/alsactl -F -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state restore
;;
*) exit $NA
;;
esac

And Voilà! Working sound on resume.
