Sound no longer works [solved]

Recommended Posts

After upgrading to Mandriva 2008.1, my sound just stopped working without a hint of it coming back.

 

I have disabled PulseAudio, changed drivers, changed from ALSA to OSS and still nothing. My sound card is Intel Corporation | 82801CA/CAM AC'97 Audio Controller using Intel snd_intel8x0.

 

Below is some information that hopefully will bring some light onto error.

 

[root@tweek.snat.co.uk snat]# lspci |grep -i audio
00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801CA/CAM AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 01)

 

[root@tweek.snat.co.uk snat]# lspcidrake -v |fgrep -i AUDIO
snd_intel8x0	: Intel Corporation|82801CA/CAM AC'97 Audio Controller [MULTIMEDIA_AUDIO] (vendor:8086 device:2485 subv:1013 subd:5959)

 

[root@localhost snat]# grep sound-slot /etc/modprobe.conf
alias sound-slot-0 snd_intel8x0

 

Many thanks and if you need anything else, please just ask.

 

Edit

 

Sound doesn't work in KDE or Gnome or directly in terminal if I do a console login.

Everything looks normal. I would suggest that you leave PulseAudio disabled, change from OSS back to ALSA, then in a terminal (as root) run

alsaconf

to set things up. Then (as root) run

alsactl store

to save your settings.

 

Welcome aboard! :)

That done it, many thanks :)

 

I typically install Linux on servers and last time I used a Live CD on my PC so I guessed I missed something. Thanks for your welcome. I guess this issue is now sorted.

 

Next is bluetooth to sort out :)
