Hope this can help. I updated the alsa-base and my sound stopped working on my laptop again, pasting a solution I tried from Suse and wrote in a forum about a week ago: ---------------------------------- "I've bought a Compaq Presario CQ45 102TU, and I installed Kubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Alpha 2 on it. I had no sound and the speaker button was red. The fix that people had for Intrepid adding "options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1" at the end didn't work here, because it seems like the Ubuntu team already added it... I looked around and found an undocumented solution on a suse forum. In the: "/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base" I added: "options snd-hda-intel model=hp-m4" before "options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1", and now everything works. As they said on that forum, that "hp-m4" was nowhere to be found in the Alsa documentation though, there was a "dell-m4" which I tried earlier, it made the speaker symbol lighten up but there was no sound." ---------------------------------- This time I tried hp-m6 first which they also mentioned on the suse forum but with no luck, so I added "options snd-hda-intel model=hp-m4" again and rebooted and the sound worked.
I'm a noob so I don't know if the order the input in the file is so I just paste the end of my alsa-base file here: ------------------------- options snd-usb-us122l index=-2 options snd-usb-usx2y index=-2 options snd-usb-caiaq index=-2 # Added By Jorgen options snd-hda-intel model=hp-m4 # End Added # Ubuntu #62691, enable MPU for snd-cmipci options snd-cmipci mpu_port=0x330 fm_port=0x388 # Keep snd-pcsp from beeing loaded as first soundcard options snd-pcsp index=-2 ------------------------- Here's what the laptop says about the sound card: 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: STAC92xx Analog [STAC92xx Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Codec: IDT 92HD71B7X Codec: LSI ID 1040 Codec: Generic 8086 ID 2802 ==> /proc/asound/card0/codec#0 <== Codec: IDT 92HD71B7X ==> /proc/asound/card0/codec#1 <== Codec: LSI ID 1040 ==> /proc/asound/card0/codec#2 <== Codec: Generic 8086 ID 2802 Computer information: Compaq Presario CQ45 FN440PA#AKC Bios F.11c -- [jaunty regression] Pulse Audio finds no card for output https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/322374 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
