BJizzle : Could you try to install the backport module by doing this : sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-generic Then reboot and test if sound works.
If it doesn't work, edit this file : sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base and modify the following line : options snd-hda-intel so that it looks like : options snd-hda-intel model=acer-aspire the reboot and test if sound works. If it doesn't work, repeat the preceding procedure with "model=acer" -- Acer Aspire 5050 - hda-intel sound doesn't work (Realtek ALC883 codec) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145788 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
