I wish I could help more specifically, but as a general idea, you may want to look at: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1520873/ (Note: although the VIA module is not listed explicitly, it also uses ac97_quirk)
You make the changes in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf file. For example, you might add the line: options snd-via82xx ac97_quirk=swap_surround You'll need to restart alsa for changes to take effect: sudo alsa reload -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1098674 Title: [VIA8233 - VIA 8235, playback] No sound at all To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1098674/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
