Okay, upon reboot, I hear TheUbuntuDrumsOfSouthAfrica(tm) at the login screen, but when i get to the desktop, the sound-indicator-icon has three dashes coming out of the speaker, and when I open sound-settings I no longer see *any* entries under the output tab (I would expect to see spdif + with luck speakersBuitIn), nor any entries under the input tab either (I would expect to see internal_mic).

I still only see spdif in the output tab (spkr-built-in definitely gone ... and maybe no surround-profile which ought to be there if I understand david correctly?), but at least I see something. Input-tab also now show internal-mic again, as expected. Since this patch from comment#13 does not seem to be helping, I'm going to revert it for the moment, and try some of the other suggestions. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1236965 Title: pulseaudio does not recognize internal speakers [P180HMx, Realtek ALC892, Speaker, Internal] volume slider problem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1236965/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
