Everytime I boot Ubuntu 9.10 system there is no start-up sound. A check of the sound settings under the system/preferences showes the sound muted checkbox is checked. I can uncheck it and listen music, etc. normally the rest of the session but on a reboot it is muted again.
View 1 RepliesI have two laptops, one has sound muted at start up (karmic), like in this thread , and i like it and in one the sound is not muted and i want it too be (lucid), like in this threadhow do i set to mute on startup (or shutdown to be more precise)?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've been having some issues with my sound for a few weeks. Every time I reboot, my sound is muted. I have to open up alsamixer every time and unmute it manually. It is not the "master volume" that is muted but instead the "speaker" volume is the one that is muted. This started when i started up my computer and the ubuntu log-in sound started playing extremely loud. I quickly tried to turn down the volume while it was still booting and ever since then, i have been having this issue. Also, the volume control on my laptop no longer works, even after i adjust the volume with alsamixer. It still shows on the screen that the volume is being adjusted, but it does nothing. I hoped i explained this well enough for someone to be able to help me with this issue. Also, sorry if this issue has been posted before.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've seen loads of threads about this sound issue, and I've experienced/fixed it before (after HOURS of searching), but this time it's worse. I'm running Maverick. I accidentally muted my sound and shut down with it muted. Upon restart, no sound is present through headphones, speakers, anything. The sound card still shows up in the options. Sound also has been disabled on my LIVE DISC OF 11.04These sound problems are the absolute worst part of Ubuntu. I'm almost ready to jump ship back to...vista *shudder*

Every time I hibernate the PC, when i comes back up I have to go into the mixer app to unmute the thing.. I this some sort of "feature"? I hope not.. running xubuntu 11.04..
I've got no sounds from my audio card. I have established this knowledge by confirming it by using two separate sets of speakers. In addition, there is a weird muted icon in the top left corner. I've looked through the sound settings, including alsamixer, and I cannot find whats muted. Please see attached screenshot. As you can see, my output it muted, but the speaker is back (see a) in screenshot), not white like it normally is (see b) in screenshot). How to restore sound from my audio ports?

I am been using Fedora 14 on my HP mini for a few weeks now. Everything was working fine. However, since I have updated my system a few time using yum upgrade. I can no longer get the sound working.
If I go to Menu | multimedia | pulseaudio sound control
All the volumes levels are at 100%. However, the mute button is muted and everything I press it, it remains muted.

View 2 Replies View RelatedRight now I either can have wireless or sound. When I get sound I lose my wireless which may be due to some kernel issue. I use the madwifi, madwifi-kmp-default, madwifi-kmp-pae, & compat-wireless-kmp-pae for my athero ar 9285. This gets my wireless going.
I followed
SDB:AudioTroubleshooting - openSUSE
and couldn't get sound
Then I followed
Alsa-update-snapshot - openSUSE
I get sound but lose my wireless. I reinstall madwifi-kmp-pae, & compat-wireless-kmp-pae. I have to downgrade some kernel conflicts and I have wireless, but no sound. My sound information is here [URL].
I have a netbook running squeeze + lxde. Every time I boot, I have to open alsamixer and turn on my speaker channel. Master and PCM are both enabled and at 100%, as is everything relating to the mic. Speaker just refuses to work with me though.
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe audio of my laptop works well, but the audio is muted on system startup. So, I have to turn it on manualy. I listen much to music, so it's very fustrating.
How can I turn it on by default?
I've got an asus a8js laptop and since installing karmic, the built in microphone is permanently on. Every once in a while I brush my finger of the mic unintentionally and it makes some mad feedback.
I've ruled out that this is caused by pulseaudio, the problem occurs when pulseaudio is off (pulseaudio --kill) and I've set .asoundrc to go straight through the hardware.
My first thought was to check alsamixer, but I muted (capture, mic, mic boost set to 0) it in there to no avail. Consequently, any time I move a slider (any one, PCM, mic, Front...) the microphone mutes for 3 to 15 seconds and then is suddenly live again.
Here's my .asoundrc
Code:
In all the soundcard works fine, it's just that the mic is always on and I can't seem to set it otherwise.
I've recently installed Xubuntu Lucid Beta2 on my new laptop. But I'm unable to turn the bell back on. The 'pcspkr'-module is removed from the blacklist and is loaded. However, 'alsamixer' doesn't show me any volume-options for the beep. However, 'echo -e "a"' still doesn't make a sound. I've installed the 'beep'-package, and it works, thus I am assuming that the hardware-bell itself does WORK fine. It's just deactivated/muted somewhere, and I can't find the option to turn it back on.

I have an Asus 1005PE that I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 on. I've set up a hot key to mute/unmute by using the command
amixer sset Master toggle
For some reason it works fine if the computer is booted while not being muted, but if the computer is booted and is muted, the command will not unmute.
I have the issue that the right channel is nearly to be muted (very low gain, high distortions).

I recently bought a set of 2.1 speakers, all is fine. I like to listen to my DAB radio through them. When I boot up, (runlevel 3), sound is there via the mic/line-in jack, but as soon as KDE starts, the sound cuts. I can get it back by:~>alsamixerand then F6 and then scroll to mic, switching to ON and slider up to full and then mic boost up to 65% or so.Can I tell something in KDE to default to mic/line-in on?kmix does not give the full picture I see in other's posts, like here:ImageShack® - Online Photo and Video Hostingjust a single slider under each tab, like this:
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a very strange problem with Phonon. I am running slackware-current with KDE-4.3.4 on an old PC with CS46xx sound chip. The Phonon backend is Xine. The system is newly installed.
Applications which use the Phonon layer are silent or muted. I am not able to hear anything. Affected is for example Amarok, Dragon Player, Minitube or the Kde Notification system (when playing sounds). What makes the situation strange is the fact, that everything looks pretty fine:
Alsa works excellent and is configured correctly.
KMixer affects the alsa system settings as expected.
Mplayer works, Xine works, mpg321 works.
Inside Kde's system settings -> Multimedia, the Test button works and i can hear the Kde start up melody.
Inside Kde's system settings -> Notifications, the play button for sound events works and plays the given sounds.
The problem appears with a newly created user account, too.
What i also tried was to compile [url]. The output looks ok to me, too. No errors and ogg and mp3 support is available.
Last but not least i tried the Python coding tutorial at [url]. The fact, that this works, unsettles me totally.
My only glitch with Ubuntu, which runs flawlessly on this beast, otherwise.I have spent more than 50 hours on this problem. In my case, inserting headphone jack doesn't mute internal speakers. There is sound in the headphone though.alsamixer ot gnome-alsamixer doesn't even show the headphone option. So I cannot change their values.I have tried model= various options, with no avail.I have uploaded my information to alsa projct and the link is: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=18...788fc1458ff422

My first idea was to try some different model names when loading the snd_hda_intel module, but after checking the alsa documentation unfortunately i didn't found this particular codec in it. Then after a few hours of lmgtfy.com sessions came the enlightenment. I found something interesting which actually turned out to fix this problem. Here it is: [URL].

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was just using the mic and watched it stop working suddenly. I was in the middle of a skype test call when the graphical mixer level died down to zero in the middle of the call. When the test call was played back, the first part sounded fine then the sound got lower until it became inaudible. Since then I can't get any sound from my mic in skype.
Also, the audio input level graphically shown in Sound Preferences shows no fluctuations in sound as it used to before. The input device is enabled. I tried using Sound Recorder to record some sound clips and that worked fine. So the mic is working but Sound Preferences and Skype seem to have the mic level really low. I'm not sure what else to think considering it was working perfectly a few minutes ago. I've tried restarting, but that didn't fix it either.
I recently noticed that when I boot up ubuntu it no longer plays the cool startup music. I think it may have something to do with me removing these packages in synaptic package manager because they were interferring with my sound in total annihilation for spring. Most of the packages below were reinstalled because my sound icon disappeared and I had to reinstall them. But are any one of these packages responsible for the ubuntu boot up sound?
gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio
libcanberra-pulse
pulseaudio
pulseaudio-esound-compat

I want to turn off the sound when Ubuntu boots and can't figure out how. I have tried System > Preferences > Sound > making sure mute is checked for alert volume and also the alert volume level is all the way to the left. It still goes off when I boot.
How do I stop it?
Strange problems and I don't know if they are related. This is Ubuntu 10.4 32 bit on a Toshiba Qosmio x505-q875 laptop dual boot with Winblows 7. One drive bay is a 64GB SSD with windows, my root, usr, and swap partitions on it. The other is a 1TB drive with the home partition.
First Problem: After the Grub menu disappears (defaulting to Ubuntu) about 25% of the time nothing happens. No harddrive light blinking, no cursor, nothing. Everything just stops. I have to use the power button to reset it. Happens several times in a row occasionally. I've never had this happen with Windows.
Second Problem: Sometimes Ubuntu doesn't see the sound card at all. The speaker icon is grehyed out and when I go into sound preferences, it doesn't list any sound device at all. Rebooting fixes it. This happens maybe half the time.
Last Problem: This one happens when the sound doesn't work. When i go to shut down the system, the hibernate and suspend options are not in the shutdown menu, and when I do shut down, it only logs me off. Even at the log on screen, if I tell the system to shut down again, nothing happens. I can log back on it that means anything, but shutting down again has the same effect.

After installing and uninstalling a couple backports modules in synaptic and reinstalling almost every alsa package, I have no sound in ubuntu after the boot chime.In my sound preferences, No hardware is listed and only "dummy output" is available under the outputs option.
