serenity nerd, as per http://support.toshiba.com/support/modelHome?freeText=3025135 an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (1.80). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?
For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible: 1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date 2) Please make a comment specifically advising on if there was an improvement or not. 3) If the issue is still reproducible, please mark this report Status Confirmed. Otherwise, please mark this as Invalid. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-1.80 ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Summary changed: - sound not working 14.10 + sound not working 14.04 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1523328 Title: sound not working 14.04 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: not sure how to give you the info you need i will post below the info https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure said to give you. the problem is that sound will for for a few seconds then fail till i reboot. tried the trouble shooting from the above page to no avail.
