I recently upgrade my motherboard to ASUS P5G41T-M LX. The audio spec is as follows:
ALC887 8-Channel AUDIO CODEC
I set the PC as dual boot, win7 and Fedora 15. When I am in win7, the sound volume is normal, but when I am in F15, the sound volume is very low, compared to in win7. I already set the volume to max in audio settings when I do the comparison. How do I get the volume up?
To start off, I am about 3 days into my new ubuntu operating system. I am a complete newbie, but i have picked up alot in the last couple days. My sound was previously working, but the microphone was glitching when using skype. After running a bunch of different commands in terminal that were posted on forums from all over the internet, I rebooted my computer to find no sound. I have searched the forums again and tried many different command lines in terminal to no avail. My system setup is found here: [URL]

With the main volume control in the top taskbar, there are two positions of level setting where the audio drops to a normal level and sounds OK but any application changing the level or starting to use the Pulseaudio changes the level and its loud and massively distorted again.
In the Pulseaudio manager->sink->alsaoutput.pci-0000-00-11.5.analog-stereo -> properties-> show volume meter, the audio is always maxed out in level. I have tried everything, its unworkable right now. Its possible to start alsamixer from terminal and adjust settings for good audio but any future change reverts to distortion. All changes in Pulseaudio Dev mgr or vol control etc change the audio as they should but do not affect the problem.
It's really incredible! And suprising at least using the standard X-Fi drivers from Fedora and Rhythmbox music player. Even with the most current drivers and X-Fi Crystalizer in Win7, the sound quality of my music collection is much much better in Fedora! High's, mid's and low's are crystal clear without all the added extra's I get from the Win7 drivers. Of course, the eq in Rhythmbox has to be setup a bit differently than the Creative Labs eq.Anyone else experiencing this with their soundcards/F14 ?

Sound worked fine withthe Windows 7, but no sound with Ubuntu. Did a reinstall with just Ubuntu 64 bit (wiping out the Windows 7). No sound.I first did:
System -> Administration->System Testing
(testing only for sound). I get:
0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel
[code]....
I just did an upgrade from F12 64bit to F13 64bit and sound causes problem, It does work, but even when I set everything to max, the sound level is still way too low. I checked pulseaudio volume control, sound preferences etc, everything seems to be normal.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've recently changed motherboards from a gigabyte ma785gmt-ud2h to an ASUS M488T-M/USB3. For comparative purposes, I have done a fresh install of both Win 7 and Fedora 14 - everything works well except that the sound in Fedora is very scratchy and I cannot get the volume or clearness I was used to with the previous board.
Is there a driver which will fix this problem, or is this a quirk peculiar to ASUS boards? (The sound in Win 7 is crystal clear, by the way - I'm starting to think that the board was designed with Win 7 in mind.)
I'm using 32bit F12 on my Sony laptop. Each time the system is booted, the sound volume is 100%. Then I log in and set the volume to a much lower level. But when a media application, such as mplayer, is started, the volume is recovered to 100%. The 64bit F12 on a PC has the same sound problem
View 1 Replies View RelatedSeveral days ago, I replace my PC's motherboard and now sound is too low - I can't hear practically anything, I used alsamixer to configure output volume level to normal, but this won't survive reboot.
I tried to use 'alsactl' and saveed rules, and edited rc.local to restore - but it didn't help. Can anyone tell me how to fix it?
There was an advanced sound option in Fedora 11. I need those advanced sound options, because I can raise the volume on it. That which is greater than what I can go on 12. If I try to raise the volume in the sound preferences on 12. I get a static kind of sound. And it seems to have a lock at 100% when I try to raise the volume with my keyboard. Instead of whatever I can get when I raise it in preferences which is like 150% (I don't know the acutal perfentage)

I used to have F12 where everything worked perfect, recently I've changed to F14 (complete reinstall) and I noticed that my speakers don't work and the sound through the headphones is to quiet.It is as if F14 doesn't recognize my sound card?

The module (and a few others) appear to be loading for my Audigy2 card. Sound is fine in KDE and all relevant applications. I have no sound outside of X. I've made certain that the volume is up on ALL outputs in "alsamixer" there's got to be something I'm missing. I've just checked....I connected one of the line outs from the sound card to an amplifier and used madplay to play a song in console. It worked fine. The problem seems to be that the sound is not being routed to the video card (via spdif) in console mode. This does work after I've started X as I have sound on all applications when running KDE.
Using Dell Inspiron 1564. In windows 7 and other distros like ubuntu, openSUSE sound was perfect. However the sound here is pretty low. Not sure if there's some configuration I am missing. I ran alsaconf, maxed out the bars in alsamixer and did a alsactl store. But the sound is still low.

I have a weird problem where the playing any track from Amarok results in no sound being heard from the speakers. However, from everywhere else - YaST audio configuration, openSUSE startup, VLC, SMplayer et al - the sound is heard fine. I have no clue as to how I can go about fixing this. Hoping someone could assist me with this. I have a Dell Inspiron 1520. Here's the link to the output of alsa-info.sh: [URL] My Smolts system profile: Show Box my /var/log/messages keeps recording this:

whenever I try to play something on Amarok I'm running on openSUSE 11.3, KDE 4.5 ( though this problem existed on KDE 4.4 as well).
I have an old Acer Travel Mate 290 with OpenSuSE 11.3 (LXDE) 30G and 240Mb RAM. I don't have sound in the internal speakers, I only have sound through the headphones. Here you will find the information of alsa-info.sh [URL]

Running 11.3 and sound works ok in desktop, mplayer, firefox (flash) etc. System is using Pulse audio. I think that this worked before but I'm not sure. I don't really use
this system. I do boot it every couple of days and update it. Backend is on desktop, and live TV and recordings show fine but without sound. What do I need to check?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI did a clean install of ubuntu 10.4 on 2 pc's and got the problem underneath on both of them. I can play all kinds of cd's, dvd's. The soundsystem is working fine. If I want to listen to a radio-station in a browser (be it firefox, be it chromium) I don't hear anything at all. No error-messages are generated. I installed/removed various soundmodules, but all to no avail. If I paste the url of the strean in VLC or Rythmbox, then I can hear the music! At booting-up, I get the following messages in the user.log-file :

I must say that initially I only got the message "pulseaudio[1135]: pid.c: Daemon already running." By the way. I can listen to some stations, eg. [URL]. In the latter case, an iplayer-console is being opened.
I don't get any sound from my left speaker. With my headphones plugged in though I get sound in both speakers. I've upgraded my Kernel to .36. I'm using Ubuntu 10.10. I'm on an MSI A7200 which is a great laptop but apparently a very rare one. There's like no info on it at all on the internet.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've just installed Karmic 9.10 to a new 500GB sata in a friends PC and it boots and runs fine; internet and everything just works. Just reinstalled XP-SP3 to old 80GB pata drive in same PC, it boots ok, but has no sound, poor graphics and network is limited to 1394 - no ethernet.
I built this PC about 3 years ago and it had been running XP with SP2 then SP3 installed, and everything worked fine. So over the past day I have installed XP-SP3 (slipstreamed disc) in it 3 times now, then went back and tried XP-SP2 (earlier slipstreamed disc) twice with same result - no ethernet, poor graphics, no sound?
But it all works fine in Karmic?
I ran Karmic's disk utilities (Palimsest) on the old 80GB and it tested fine, no problems at all.
PC comprises Gigabyte M55plus-S3G m/board, AMD 3800+ 2.4Ghz CPU, 1 GB RAM and a 64MB NVidia graphics card (can't recall model)
Is it possible MS built 'crippleware' in to XP, or could there be a hardware problem that Karmic didn't detect (doubt it)
Karmic is going to be the main OS now, so I don't think the loss of XP is a problem, but friend still wanted to be able to boot XP, even though XP is installed in Virtualbox in Karmic (I did this by importing a previously saved XP 'appliance').
here's some background info: purchased a brand new netbook last week (samsung n130) and thought i'd set up a dual-boot to accompany the pre-installed windows xp sp3, and after a bit of research i decided upon installing ubuntu as my preferred linux os, which i believe at the time was and still is version 10.10.
but the problem is: when i attempt to watch flash videos (from videos for example) the video streams fine, but the audio is very jumpy and skips back and forth every few seconds. occasionally there are periods of say 10-15 seconds where the audio is ok. the problem exists on both firefox and chrome, and is exclusive to ubuntu. keep in mind that i'm an absolute novice when it comes to linux/ubuntu, etc.
I don't know much about lvm and I've managed to screw up a drive. I had a 500GB drive with FC14 on it and I wanted to copy over a load of data to my new 1TB that was replacing it. I set up my new install the same way as the old...including the same volume names (error number 1 I think) I successfully mounted the old/500GB drive (using vgscan and vgchange -a y etc.) using a laptop (running FC13) and an external hdd cradle. I could access the files I wanted but this wasn't the machine I wanted to copy them to (I was doing this while waiting for the install to finish on the new drive).
When I tried the same process on the new install I found that having two lvm with the same name meant I couldn't mount the external one. So I opened the disk utility (palimsest) and was going to change the name of the old volume group but it wouldn't let me do that. I then thought maybe I could get away with just changing the name of the partition where the files were and maybe I could add it to the mounted group or something so I changed it to lv_home2. This changed the name of my new/1TB lv_home to lv_home2 as well. So thinking that wasn't the answer I just changed the name of the new lv_home2 back to lv_home.
From that point on I haven't been able to see the old drives partitions (the new volume group still works so far). I has a physical volume but the volume group and volume names are gone from view. When I try to vgscan on my main computer or the laptop I had it working on earlier I get:

Some audio output from files or streams is too low. It is obvious that hardware is able to play the same sounds but louder but because of the data it just plays it at some low level even at 100% volume. Vlc can generally increase the volume of a file up to 200%. Is there a way to do the same thing VLC does system-wide and if possible for an arbitrary v percentage value.
If there is no application that does this, where should i look into for libs to do it myself or what code should i modify(eg code in the alsamixer)
Note: Asked the same thing on stackoverflow and they directed me here.
I am running Ubuntu 10.04 on a Sony Vaio EC laptop. I am having problems with my volume being very low under Ubuntu, even if I turn all the options to full, I can barely hear it. This happens both through the built in speakers and through headphones. I know it is not a hardware problem since both work fine in Win7 dual boot. Also, this problem occurs both in Rhythmbox and chromium.
