Hi,
I know similar issues have been posted, but the fixes mentioned there do not seem to work or cover the issue I am experiencing.
I have had Ubuntu installed and running on this laptop for ~1 year with no issues. The other day the sound stopped working for everything other than headphones. While trying to fix that, I fear I have made it more of an issue. Now the sound does not work for anything, and there is only 'Dummy output' available as a sound output. The microphone also seems to not be working.
Additionally, despite alsa being installed, alsamixer returns 'cannot open mixer: No such file or directory'.
I have tried purging and reinstalling alsa and pulseaudio to no avail.
sudo aplay -l
returns:
aplay: device_list:268: no soundcards found...
sudo lspci -v | grep -A7 -i "audio"
returns:
00:1f.3 Audio device: Intel Corporation Device 9d71 (rev 21)
Subsystem: CLEVO/KAPOK Computer Device 2410
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 32, IRQ 133

Capabilities: [60] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit+
Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_inte
Adding "options snd-hda-intel model=auto" to the alsa-base.conf did not work either.
I would really like to not have to reinstall Ubuntu. Are there any suggestions?
