ubuntu 12.04, no sound, dummy output, "aplay -l: no soundcards found"
A few weeks ago I installed ubuntu, and had some issues with sound but when it stopped working i could "fix it" by doing "sudo alsa force-reload" three or four times and I got the sound working. That won't happen anymore since last update.
Also, when I run the information script "bash alsa-info.sh --stdout" it says the following
# ALSA Version
# Driver version: 1.0.24
# Library version: 1.0.25
# Utilities version: 1.0.25
So driver version does not match the rest even when i just upgraded ALSA
