STAC92xx Analog codec not working on HP Pavilion dv4 1220 us in Ubuntu 8.10

Asked by Itai Molenaar

Hi,
I recently bought a HP Pavilion dv4 1220 us laptop from Newegg. I immediately installed Ubuntu 8.10. Unfortunately, there is no sound coming out at all, even though the sound card is detected, and my sound is not muted, etc. I found many similar problems, including this one... https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/56923 However, the posted solution did not work, and I am still stuck. I have tried many other suggested solutions, and I still cannot find one that works. I know that this is a common bug out there, can anyone help?

did you try:
R-click the speaker nest to date and L-click Open Volume Control.
slide the PCM and Front bars all the way up.
then test if it is too loud only use your +- keys to adjust the volume or the master slider.

Hi,

Have you enabled everything in alsamixer EXCEPT "external amplifier"?

Please look at

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

for more suggestions.

Please also follow this procedure:

Step 1: Open Terminal from "Applications->Accessories->
Terminal"

Step 2: Run the following commands (type each then hit <enter>)

lspci -v
lsmod |grep snd
aplay -l
find /lib/modules/`uname -r` | grep snd
uname -a
cat /proc/asound/modules
grep options /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base

Step 3: Post results (cut/paste terminal output from each command) here

Regards,

Mark

Hi,

Make sure to copy-paste the 7 commands (from Step 2) instead of typing them. This will help to avoid typo's.

Regards,

Mark

Hi,

Please see :

http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6194461&postcount=3

This procedure should solve your HP Pavilion dv4 sound problems:

1. copy-paste the following command into the Terminal:

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

2. and add this line to the end of the file:

options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1

3. Then navigate to System>Preferences>Sound and change everything to ALSA

4. reboot and retest sound

Regards,

Mark

Hi,

If the previous procedure did not work, then try this one:

1. copy-paste the following command into the Terminal:

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

2. and add these lines to the end of the file:

# Keep snd-pcsp from beeing loaded as first soundcard
options snd-pcsp index=-2
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel model=dell-m4-1
options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1

3. Then navigate to System>Preferences>Sound and change everything to ALSA

4. reboot and retest sound

Regards,

Mark

The second solution solved my problem, but I have a another question if you don't mind. Is there anything I can do to flag this problem (perhaps filing a bug report) that would allow a potential patch to this solution? It seems cruel knowing a solution to a common problem, and knowing that it's probably not going to be fixed soon, or is there a fix on the way?
