If you need anything else from me please let me know. You will get prompt replies. I have followed the advice of several forums posts, and the alsa install instructions, to no avail. I now have a fresh install of Fiesty (7.04), along with all the updates available on 7/1/07. I have checked to make sure nothing is muted in the alsa mixer, and I have check the headphone jack. There is no sound at all. Ubuntu does not seem aware of this, as the volume controls act as they should. If I go to Preferences -> Sound, here is what I see under the devices tab:
Sound Events: Sound Playback: Autodetect (If I try to run test, a progress bar dialog comes up, but the progress bar only finishes about 15%, then does nothing) Music and Movies: Sound Playback: Autodetect (test is same as above) Audio Conferencing: Sound Playback: Autodetect (test is same as above) Sound Capture: ALSA - Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (test fails with this message: Failed to construct test pipeline for 'gconfaudiosrc ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=chat' When I hit the close button on this dialog a short while later, a dialog with this message appears '''' is not responding - you may chose to wait a short while for it to continue or force the application to quit entirely. The application never continues, and when I press the button to force quit, the sound preferences dialog quits.) Default Mixer Tracks Device: HDA ATI SB(Alsa mixer) Master PCM Capture Capture MUX Under the sounds tab, the only two sounds enabled are the login and logout sounds. When I press play on either of these sounds, nothing happens. No dialog, no sound, the button momentarily clicks visually, but nothing else occurs. If there are any other commands you need me to run, or even if you need remote access to my laptop, please let me know. It is important to me to get sound running on this laptop.
