Codec: IDT 92HD75B3X5 - STAC92xx Analog [STAC92xx Analog] Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) - sound not working on HP dv6 1330 in Ubuntu 9.10 - using ALSA driver v1.0.22.1

Asked by Amit

The sound doesn't work at all although I can see the volume control. I have also added these lines to the end of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel model=hp-dv5
options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1

Here is the output for some of the commands:

sudo lshw -C sound;

Hi,

Please follow step 1 from

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure

to upgrade all 3 ALSA components to the same new ALSA driver version, which is v1.0.23

If sound still does not work (test both headphones and speakers!) using ALSA v1.0.23, please try this procedure:

a) Open a terminal and edit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf as follows:

gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

When the file is open, add the following 3 lines to the end of the file after "options snd-pcsp index=-2"

options snd-pcsp index=-2
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel model=hp-m4

REMOVE the following 2 lines:

options snd-hda-intel model=hp-dv5
options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1

b) Save change to file /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf , reboot and retest sound using headphones AND speakers

Regards,

Mark

Dear Mark,
I tried the above procedure and it worked but then my internet went off. I already struggled last week to get it working
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-nettool/+question/93476

For my internet I need to do a "sudo modprobe b43" each time I boot my system.
And after the above procedure for sound: I can have only one: either the sound or my WiFi :)

Please set the status of this thread to "solved" because the sound issue has now been resolved. This sound issue has NOTHING to do with the wireless issue you are having... I have given a suggestion for your wireless issue in the following thread:

https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-nettool/+question/93476

To summarize: your wireless is not working correctly, because you are using the wrong driver. You should use the bcmwl-kernel-source driver instead of the b43 driver.

Please close this thread.
