Cannot open shared library libasound_module_conf_pulse.so
I upgraded from 16.04.1 LTS to 18.04.1 LTS. Sound was working fine in 16.04.1 LTS.
Unfortunately I now have no sound working on my PC (I use it as a mediaPC running Kodi).
In the /var/log/syslog I see this log entry on start-up:
Aug 24 18:20:43 mediapc alsactl[683]: ALSA lib conf.c:
Aug 24 18:20:43 mediapc alsactl[683]: ALSA lib control.
Aug 24 18:20:43 mediapc alsactl[683]: /usr/sbin/alsactl: set_controls:1482: snd_ctl_open error: No such file or directory
And when I try to run aplay or amixer, I get this error:
~$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
ALSA lib conf.c:
ALSA lib control.
aplay: device_list:279: control open (0): No such file or directory
When I run pavucontrol for pulseaudio, it works - it finds the correct card, and when I click to play music the sound levels show that music is playing, but nothing comes through.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled pulseaudio:i386, alsa-base, libasound2-plugins but nothing works.
sudo apt-file find libasound_
libasound2-plugins: /usr/lib/
dpkg -l | egrep 'alsa|pulseaudi
