Hi All, I followed the steps in this post and the sound is still not working.
I found what might be a clue in sound preferences - screenshot attached. ALSA Multi gives me the same error as I had before. ALSA (Advanced . . . shows a test bar. I am not going to try the post after this one, although I find the directions a bit confusing.

The sound of silence is deafening. Hi Glucklich and Garfunkel! I know how terrible it feels without sound. I went through the same process, so let me help you guys out! If the terminal tells you that those files are up to date, then you don't need to worry about the step of the process Jeroen said in which you install those programs. You need to go to the next step in his instructions, and here's what you can do. Copy and paste this code into the terminal: (If you have Ubuntu installed) Quote: sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base (If you have Kubuntu installed) Quote: sudo kate /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base This command will open a text editor with the configuration file for alsa-base. Put the cursor at the end of the file, and hit Enter to put in a new line, then copy and paste this code: Quote: options snd-hda-intel model=auto Save the file, and next, reboot your computer, and like me, you should hear the sound come back with a vengeance. Let me know if this works for you. DID NOT WORK -------------------------------------------------------------------- NOW TRYING THIS http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6449370&postcount=989 Re: HOWTO: PulseAudio Fixes & System-Wide Equalizer Support Hey anyone out there having difficulty trying to get Pulseaudio working with a hardware playback device that uses ICE1712 (as displayed when you run the command "aplay -l", there is a bug I have found which seems to affect all cards using this chipset. For example my card is card 0: H71 [Hoontech STA DSP24 Media 7.1], device 0: ICE1712 multi [ICE1712 multi] but according to this bug other cards such as M-Audio type cards are affected too. There is a manual workaround listed in this bug. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...io/+bug/178442 There is a posting about an M-Audio Delta 44 card... [pasted below - ] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...442/comments/8 I have found that this workaround works for my card too. If it helps people I have included the steps I made to get my ICE1712 type card working in pulseaudio. In my example you will need to replace the "H71" with whatever the device says when you run Code: asoundconf list By editing this file, Code: gksudo gedit /etc/pulse/default.pa and adding the following lines at the end, I now have a working pulseaudio in 8.10 64 bit. Code: # Workaround for MAudio Audiophile # https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/178442/comments/7 # Added comment rod40cool - (STA Audio Media 7.1 card uses same ICE1712 driver) # Added comment rod40cool - Run command "asoundconf list" to determine what to add after "device=hw:????" # Added comment rod40cool - Make sure after pasting that there are only 2 lines below starting each with "load-module module..." load-module module-alsa-sink sink_name=H71_out device=hw:H71 format=s32le channels=10 channel_map=left,right,aux0,aux1,aux2,aux3,aux4,aux5,aux6,aux7 load-module module-alsa-source source_name=H71_in device=hw:H71 format=s32le channels=12 channel_map=left,right,aux0,aux1,aux2,aux3,aux4,aux5,aux6,aux7,aux8,aux9 I hope this helps someone who is trying to get pulseaudio running for a ST Audio Media 7.1 or M-Audio Delta card or in fact any card that uses the ICE1712 driver.

Bug #178442 Comment 8 for bug 178442 Laurent Moussault wrote on 2008-04-06: #8 Same problem with a M-Audio Delta 44 (same alsa driver ice1712). The workaround above works, with "device=hw:M44". >From what I read in the link posted above, the problem seems to be that there is no default channel map (i.e. knowing which channel is left and which is right) for 10 channels cards, and that the driver (or may be the card) refuse to open for just 2 channels. IMHO the bug importance is more than "low", since the ice1712 based cards are quite common among "music-oriented" linux users (these are affordable high-quality cards, supported by alsa for a long time). ** Attachment added: "Alsa multi-selected" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/33459131/Alsa_multi-Oct09.png -- Delta 44 cards not working since upgrade 9.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/425435 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
