I have an Asus P8P67 Pro motherboard with this sounds chip. I was getting the error "Too Many Connections" on boot, I read that if you made the audio AC97 and not HD then it would solve the problem. It did - though I got some crackling on audio.
I then (for some unknown reason) disabled audio completely and booted up - obviously with no sound. I rebooted and enabled HD audio and now no sound works at all HD or AC97. Nothing at all :( Please fix it! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/720799 Title: "Too many connections" error on boot caused by ALC892 soundchip -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
