I think that this is basically resolved, and now the issue is just the original bug from 2009 reported here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/359361 With the exception that the alsa driver when loading and unloading sometimes needs to be completely reloaded via rebooting the computer. alsa force-reload used to work, but that command now seems to do nothing at all (no text to terminal, no change in behavior). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1040283 Title: Alsa does not allow connections either directly or from pulseaudio.
