I'm running Ubuntu 9.10, but so far I've been unable to get sound to work. I know my sound card is Realtek, because I've had to install the HD Audio Codec Driver when I was on Windows. I downloaded the driver for Linux and it is currently sitting in my home folder. When I tried to Code:sudo ./installthe driver, it failed for the following reason:
Code: WARNING!!! The mixer channels for the ALSA driver are muted by default!!! **************************************************************************
I have an issue with my Sound on OS 11.2.It is correctly recognized under hardware and the driver seems to start properly as well when I do rcalsasound start.But under Control Center / Sound Preference there is no audio hardware listed (and hene no sound playing)
I was reading this article on how to fix the sound in Ubuntu 9.10 after upgrading from 9.04 [URL] and when I open GNOME ALSA Mixer, nothing shows up (I have included a picture). I typed in:
I'm still working on ubuntu 9.10 with an acer aspire 1810tz. To use my microphone I found out that I have to change my microphone settings because it's mono and the default setting is thinking it's stereo: With the Volume Controller I setup one chancel to 5 and the other to 90 and the mic is working fine. Starting Skype and using it I see that the setting is reducing the volume for the mic below 20, so nobody can hear me. I tried closing first Volume Controller and then starting Skype, no matter the volume of the mic is reduced. How do I stop this behavior?
I have no problems with the sound card, however, when I connect a PD552 USB sound adapter into a 4 port hub in order to use headphones it simply doesn't work. I posted the problem on the Ubuntu site and received a suggestion to run lsusb from a terminal. I did this but never received any other replies addressing the issue. This is what I receive from the command. It shows up as device 7 but I have no idea of what my next steps are to insure it will work.
My audio worked completely perfectly running Fedora 14. I upgraded to Fedora 15 and discovered my audio no longer worked. As far as I know I didn't change anything. I do hear random pops and clicks from my speakers every few seconds. It's a bummer because this worked out of the box on Fedora 14 without any screwing around, and now it's totally broken in fedora 15. Everything else about my upgrade has been going pretty well, but life without sound is not nearly as fun and it's frustrating to have something not work that used to work just fine.
Here is some information and things I've tried:
- Just for grins I booted from the Fedora 15 live CD and observe the exact same issue as I see when I boot from my HD (just pops and clicks out of the audio.) - motherboard: ASUS M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 (using onboard audio) - lspci reports: 00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) (rev 40) - cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#0 | grep -i codec reports: Codec: Realtek ALC892 (this is what the motherboard manual lists as the audio hardware.) - I've run pavumeter as some have suggested and I see outputs on both left/right channels when audio is playing (but still hear nothing but clicks and pops.) - I've run "alsamixer -c 0" and verified all my levels are maxed out. - I've opened up the sound settings dialog box and made sure the correct hardware device is selected, tried different profiles, tested left/right speakers, still no progress at all. - I know I have the speakers on and plugged into the correct output jack, but just for fun I tried plugging the speakers into each of the other possible jacks, but that didn't help.
I have an ASUS M5A78L-M LX motherboard with ALC887 inbuilt sound. The sound is barely audible unless the speaker volume is all the way up, and then it is very crackly. The BIOS is set up to use AC97 sound instead of HD Audio, which doesn't work either.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling ALSA drivers but it didn't really change anything.
I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 and my sound is not working. I have a gateway p-6860FX. i've had this trouble since 9.04 and also in 9.10, but I worked around it by adding the following to my alsa-base.conf with
Code:
Sound worked fine after that, but it doesn't work with 10.04
Here are the results of aplay -L
Code:
I went in to alsamixer and turned everything up. it didn't work.
Something is wrong with the audio on my laptop, when I used the live CD previously, nothing was wrong. It's all staticy when the base comes on or like a beat (I don't know how to explain it). Even ..... vids and such. My laptop audio is not usually like this.
I recently got a new audio interface, which is working perfectly on ubuntu 10.04 i just plugged it in and it worked without any tinkering! the interface is a lexicon omega which is fully supported under alsa. The problem is that for some reason it's not working on ubuntu 9.04 (which is where were most of my work currently is so occasionally i still have to use 9.04 as i don't have all of the same software installed on 10.04).
Jack seems to detect it properly in both 9.04 and 10.04 as it is listed in "interfaces". But it does not show up in "Volume Control Alsa Mixer" so I cannot select it from the drop down list.
So currently I have no sound (just in case you weren't able to decipher that from my primitive ubuntu-speak above )
I'm having some troubles with my soundcards. I have a Audigy ES PCI soundcard and I just recently bought an M-Audio Audiophile 24/96 soundcard and at the moment I have both of them installed. I'm dual booting w/ Windows xp and I need the Audigy in Windows for gaming and because of the mic input that the M-Audio doesn't have.
First when I installed the M-Audio only Amarok (and probably other 'Phonon' apps) worked but I had no sound in mplayer, xine etc. With some googling I found a way to make the M-Audio card the primary card for Alsa and now mplayer & xine work fine too. M-audio 24/96 uses the module ice1712.Today I noticed I don't have sound in flash player (I use opera, but tried firefox too), and the (alsa?) command aplay won't play any .wavs. Flash sounds used to work okay with only the Audigy installed. I have tried to reinstall the flash player.Aplay -l :
Code: **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: M2496 [M Audio Audiophile 24/96], device 0: ICE1712 multi [ICE1712 multi]
Well I installed Ubuntu 10.10 64Bit along side Windows 7, and I've been unable to get any sounds working, apart from the log on sound. So I tried installing some drivers, and now there is no sound at all, and no sound devices show up in System-Preferences-Sound-hardware
I'm using the on board HD Audio (ALC 889A) and using the optical Audio out for 5.1 Surround sound.
I've tried just using the Stereo ( Green Jack ) out, and still nothing. The suggestions on the on the Ubuntu site, and the following post didn't seem to work either.

I Can't find a great deal of posts with the Realtek HD audio.
I have installed the Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on a Acer Aspire 4520 laptop and I can't get sound. I try to update alsamixer without any positive results. How can i get sounds on my laptop?
Playing a song works at first; then it quits after 1-5 minutes. If you select a different output device, it will work for another 1-5 minutes, but switching back to an already used up device will not play sound. Running 'sudo killall pulseaudio' resets everything and each output device works for another 1-5 minutes. This is on on 9.10.
I seem to be having some audio clashes. I use Exaile to play music (if that matters), and after I play music, no sound comes out of videos (not just Ubuntu, it won't work from Yahoo or MSN videos either). Then when I try to go back to playing my music on Exaile, no sound will come out of that. Likewise, if I restart the computer... the sound works again. If I instead watch a video first, there will be sound -- but as soon as I try to play music from Exaile, nothing comes out.
I was running Ubuntu 9.04 and just upgraded to 9.10 recently. I see many others are having problems with their sound. I too do not have sound. I did get sound running briefly with an Alsa update, but it was muffled. In trying many other fixes, I again have no sound and can not resolve it. I am thinking of burning a new cd and doing a fresh install and starting over.
My lap top is an MSI GT725 US model with an HD4850 mobility graphics card. I dual boot between Vista 32 bit and Ubuntu.
Has anyone else had any luck getting the Realtek ATI sound working in 9.10?
I'm pretty much an Ubuntu noob and I'm about to give up. I've spent hours reading tips and tricks to get this sound card working but I usually end up making things worse. This will be my last attempt
- onboard sound is disabled in BIOS - Delta 1010LT is recognized - fresh Ubuntu 10.04 32bit install . . . everything is default. - I know how to access the terminal and for argument's sake, let's say that's it. I need step by step.
I tried to remove all instances of pulse audio in the past and it removed the desktop as well. Talk about frustrating. Ok, so here I am. Fresh install, no sound and I haven't touched a thing.
I have recorded some video, and now wanted to add some sound.I added a sound track, but when it's playing, I can't hear anything.I'm usually running Jack - for Ardour/Hydrogen etc... - I can't find anywhere in OpenShot to change the Audio to Jack, so assume it's not supported.I have killed Jack in the hope that Alsa will work with OpenShot, but still I have no sound.
i just installed a new Ubuntu 10.10, but i have no sound at all. I google-d for my problem, but i cant find any fix. In sound preferences - everything look great and working - there is my X-fi Xtreme audio CA0110-IBG, and i can choose how many channels to use, but when i go to test button, there are no sound from any channel. I got 5.1 sound system, and i use Flexijack for mic. Im confused, because everything looks like working - the system recognises my sound card, but there no sound at all. I tried to kill pulseaudio, but it not help me.
Recently I installed Ubuntu 10.10 64bit and I have a problem with it.
I have a motherboard with internal audio card as well as I have ATI 2600 card. When I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 sound via motherboard worked perfectly.
But some time later it disappeared. Actually "Output device" that represents audio card disappeared. See screenshot of the Audio Settings dialog.
I made 2 thing - most likely that one of them cause this problem: - I tried to setup Panasonic Plasma TV as a second monitor via HDMI output of my video card (ATI 2600). - I added maven-backports repository (new kernel or new audio driver?)
Have anybody seen this problem? Are any pointers how to fix it? If you need any additional info - let me know I'll be glad to provide it.
I can't seem to get my computer to record the audio from an application... Sound Recorder, Audacity, and outRec all output files but they are just silence, even though when I see them in a media player they show the visualizations. I have followed a couple guides to no avail.

I am having a problem ripping or playing audio CDs on my drive. DVD movies work fine on this drive, but audio cds will not show up in Rhythumbox nor SoundJuicer. Oddly, they will play in VLC.
I wish to rip music to my hard drive. When launching Sound Juicer, I receive the error "no CD-Rom drives found".
