Public bug reported: The sound on my HP Pavilion dv7-1030eg laptop does not work correctly after a fresh Ubuntu install (tested for 8.04, 8.10 and 9.04 beta). The sound is "choppy" and prolonged (i.e. the standard "login screen ready"-sound which should last 1 sec instead lasts for approx. 20 secs).
Here some additional info: output from: cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel HDA Intel at 0xdf300000 irq 22 output from: head -n 1 /proc/asound/card0/codec* ==> /proc/asound/card0/codec#0 <== Codec: IDT 92HD71B7X ==> /proc/asound/card0/codec#2 <== Codec: Generic 10de ID 6 You can fix this problem by adding the following line to the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base file: options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1 With this option the sound works correctly, however, the volume sliders seem to work in an "exponential" way: the first 50% you can't hear anything, on 75% volume it's still very quiet and up to 100% volume raises very quickly. I haven't found any fix for this.
