Public bug reported:
I cannot see the controls for the 7.1 channels supported by the laptop. I tried
to compile a new alsa snapshot just in case it's fixed but I lost the audio
device altogether after rebooting. I also tried
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-dev/+archive/ppa
which should be the proper way to update alsa in ubuntu but again the audio
device disappears altogether.
I tried to use
options snd-hda-intel model=targa-8ch-dig
and though I can see alsa controls now for the surround system but only 1 jack
is working and the sound is coming from the wrong jack (rear instead of
front/headphone) beside other problems.
I tried to send the bug the proper way but I got a crash like below:
$ ubuntu-bug audio
Bus::open: Can not get ibus-daemon's address.
