reassign 357236 linux-image-2.6.16-2-686 forwarded 357236 https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=1943 thanks
Hadn't noticed that the forward tag didn't work last time, sorry about that. Okay, it's been three months and upstream hasn't touched my bug. I'm wondering if I can get some help here, or at least vague ideas about what might be going wrong. On this laptop, fn-F3 toggles mute; when mute is turned off, there's an audible beep. When repeatedly toggling "mute unmute mute unmute", I noticed that this audible beep capability stops during the boot. By booting with init=/bin/bash and carefully going through things, I've managed to narrow it down to when the /etc/init.d/udev script runs udevtrigger. If I reboot and load the modules which udevtrigger would load, that does not cause the beeps to stop, but then running udevtrigger does stop them. I think something in udevtrigger somehow disables sound output. Any ideas? Could this be a Debian-specific problem? What do I test next? Do I stick a bunch of printfs and sleep commands into the udevtrigger source to pin things down further? I've had no sound on this laptop for a year, and finally have some time to put into this, but would rather not just flail about blindly...
