Codec + Mixer: ALC887 - card 0: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 0: ALC887 Analog [ALC887 Analog] Audio device [0403]: nVidia Corporation MCP61 High Definition Audio [10de:03f0] (rev a2) - error hda_codec: num_steps = 0 for NID=0xc (ctl = Front Playback Volume) + amixer: Mixer hw:0 load error: Invalid argument -> cannot open alsamixer - no sound output on Gigabyte M68MT-D3 in Ubuntu 10.10

Asked by Allen

I recently installed Ubuntu 10.10 and have no sound. If it helps, the motherboard is a Gigabyte M68MT-D3. I'm not very good with linux and really this if the first time using it so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thankyou.

Please open a Terminal and run the following command:

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

ADD the following single line using the gedit editor:

options snd-hda-intel model=generic

SAVE the change to the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf file.

Reboot and retest sound using headphones and speakers.

After rebooting, make sure all channels are UNMUTED and volume set to 100% in alsamixer and gnome-alsamixer

I believe your sound card is experiencing the following bug:

@Mark Rijckenberg

I attempted that fix 3 times without success. Perhaps I am adding the at the wrong location? Here is a copy of the file so that you can show me exactly where to add it. Thank you.

ADD the following single line at the very end of the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf file

options snd-hda-intel model=generic

SAVE the change to the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf file.

It is NOT a Terminal command, but a line to INSERT into the file.

Reboot and retest sound using headphones and speakers.

After rebooting, make sure all channels are UNMUTED and volume set to 100% in alsamixer and gnome-alsamixer
