As a sanity check I booted from the first live CD I came across in a stack (Ubuntu 10.10) and its sound settings panel says "Internal Audio 1 Output 1 Input Analog Stereo Duplex" and once I turned off 'mute' there the speakers worked fine.
So rebooted into 12.04. No sound. Same alsa-restore terminated message in dmesg output as dtl131 noted above. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1035474 Title: PCI/internal sound card not detected To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1035474/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
