    so no pulseaudio around.
    post the output of `aplay -l` and `cat /proc/asound/cards`

in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf add this line
options snd-hda-intel model=generic

reboot linux, if alsa starts without errors use alsamixer to ensure all volumes are correctly set >0%

-r

Thank you very much. That cures the problem. I would not have been

I am most grateful to you for taking the time to sort things out.

Kind regards,
