No sound on 12.04

Asked by bill the wad

I've recently installed ubuntu 12.04 onto my desktop w/ external speakers but no sound. I've check levels (alsamixer), connections, speakers (driven from another device) and been through many diagnostics and fix procedures. No luck. So I'm moving on to asking for specific help on my situation.

I do see that my driver version is no in sync with the library and utilities versions. I've rerun the install several time w/o error but the situation remains. Not sure how to bring these into alignment nor if this is even causing the issue.

My speakers are external and analog.

Any help getting my speakers working will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I have the same driver one ver back and had no sound either until I added another package:
sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-esound-compat
After that things worked for me, but I had ESD instead of jack. If the pulseaudio-esound-compat doesn't work, try the pulseaudio-jack (?) package .

Ubfan,

Thanks for the suggestions. Tried both (the 2nd one is pulseaudio-module-jack) with removing ~/.pulse* and rebooting. Still no sound. One change in behavior was that "test" button on "sound settings" doesn't light up the speaker icon nor does "test" change to "stop". aplay or rhythmbox still show a visual indicator of output to the sound system in pavucontrol but sound settings test does not. A clue or another issue to solve?

Please open a Terminal session and run alsamixer. Use alsamixer to UNMUTE and INCREASE volume to 100% on the following mixer channels:

Simple mixer control 'Master Mono',0
Simple mixer control 'Mix',0
Simple mixer control 'Mix Mono',0
Simple mixer control 'External Amplifier',0 -> try turning off the external amp

Then test sound output on each audio jack at the back of the PC.

Mark,
   I just rechecked alsamixer mutes and level and all ports. No dice. I've been through all the basic debug flows / pages.
