You are cutting the command up. It's one command.

Run the below as one command and it'll work:

chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh && ./alsa-info.sh

Select to upload the information. What is the generated URL please

I have found the solution to my problem, this Asus Zenbook has 4
speakers 2 on top & 2 underneath either side of the track pad.

I found that in the sound settings I had to set it to Analog Stereo 4.0
then use the Fade bar at 3/4 full to equal the sound between the Front &
back speakers, then in the Volume control I Ticked the box to allow more
than 100% and now it is working OK.

The only problem I have now is how to turn down the sound in Ubuntu on
startup, it is far to loud. ??
