Ubuntu :: Sound Glitch When Volume High?

Apr 25, 2011

I am using a Dell Inspiron Laptop 1464. I have Ubuntu 11.04 Installed, and every time I have the volume at MAX and especially when I'm listening to music that has like high bit-rate (342) or what ever, there is a glitch in the sound, it sounds like when a CD skips or when it is scratched. I tried installing all types of different mp3 encoders and still the same.

Also it is the same when I use Banshee or Rhythumbox.

Fedora :: Sound Output Volume Too Low / Make It High?

Aug 27, 2010

Several 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?

General :: Poor Quality Sound - Vibrates And Distorts At High Volume

May 11, 2010

My laptop is a Dell Inspiron 510m with onboard Intel 855 sound (STAC 9750 AC97). The sound was perfect with WinXP, but with Ubuntu it's tinny and lacks richness and vibrates and distorts at higher volumes. I've played around with Alsamixer and changed the driver from ALSA to OSS4 and it has improved slightly, but still not perfect. Is it just not gonna get any better, should I not be expecting it to be as good as WinXP?

I've seen on the Intel site a Linux driver for my controller, it's a tarball but it won't compile after extracting it (read on this forum that someone had the exact same problem with that driver). Will the Intel driver not help, does the problem go deeper than just the driver? It would be perfect it you could just wrap the Dell/Intel driver and use that (just like with wireless ndiswrapper).

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Low Sound / Make It High?

Mar 25, 2010

Motherboard: Asus P5KPL-CM
Audio Chipset: VIA VT1708B

No linux sound drivers on Asus' site. No ubuntu 9.10 drivers on VIA site. Low sound with default drivers. I've edited /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf with options snd-hda-intel model=3stack, but no luck. I actually had to do a sudo sh then edit it that way with vi because it was read only. Didn't do anything.

General :: Sound Lacking High And Low End

Jul 1, 2010

Is this just a standard characteristic of Linux or is there some way I can EQ all the audio? I've had nothing but problems with audio sounding like a scratched record in Linux. It would skip, crackle and break up no matter the source or volume. Found a solution that one to simply remove PulseAudio.

I'm using Altec Lansing ADA885 speakers with 8" DVC subwoofer. System response is good down to ~28Hz but it sounds like a cheap boombox. Last time I had these hooked up to a Windows (XP Pro) system, the bass was deep and full. Very audible all the way down. Now it sounds like the audio is boosted at center frequencies and overly cut on high and low end.I even tried putting in a PCI Turtle Beach Santa Cruz 5.1 card and the sound did NOT improve.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: 10.04 - Sound Volume Very Low

Oct 6, 2010

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.

Ubuntu :: Sound Doesn't Work And Can't Control The Volume

Jan 31, 2010

I bought a Toshiba Nb205 laptop with a Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02) inside. After I first got it I installed Ubuntu onto it, and that's where the problems started. After everything was installed I noticed that my sound doesn't work. So I looked everywhere. I tried so many solutions offered on these forums including messing around with Alsamixer and nothing seemed to be working. Then one day I luckily stumbled upon this website that directed me here: [URL] So I went there and picked the Linux 2.6(X86)(DEB) from the drop down list and installed it. I rebooted my machine, and I now had sound.

However, the only problem is that I can't control the volume of the sound. When I play something, it stays at one volume and one volume only. Nothing on sound preferences will work. The only way I can raise or lower the volume is if I do it in the application that I run, like if I am playing a ..... video, I have to use their volume control to control the volume. My master volume won't work at all.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Sound Cuts To About Half Volume?

Jul 11, 2010

When the opening little music plays during start up, the first half of it is loud, but halfway through, the sound cuts to about half volume. Everything else afterwards is also very quiet. After boosting the volume output to 150%, and boosting VLC's audio output to 200%, the audio is still barely audible on my laptop. I've gone into alsamixer, and it's at max. I once found how to reset the audio card, and the sound was normal again, but only until I shut the laptop off, and next time, it was the same as always.

I'm on Ubuntu 9.10, and using an old Toshiba Satellite laptop. Don't know what my sound card is.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Lower Volume Levels Have To Sound

Sep 29, 2010

I just recently installed ubuntu so I'm quite lost on some stuff. This little annoyance comes from the volume levels in Ubuntu 10.04. I have partitioned my computer to have dual boot into windows and ubuntu, so I know the problems are not related to the hardware itself as everything works just fine in windows. I am using a Dell Inspiron 9400, for reference.

The multimedia keys on the computer respond correctly but on the lower three volume settings sound completely drops out as if I had muted the computer. I went into the Alsa mixer to see if I could configure these sound levels and sure enough the master volume was down to zero, PCM and LFE are also low . I changed the settings of the lower levels but when I press on the volume up or down media keys to switch level the settings get reset. I tried just changing one level, exiting and saving through alsactl but it didn't stick. Even after reboot the settings are back to the zero volume on the first levels.
