Package: powersaved
Version: 0.14.0-5
On resuming from suspends to disk or ram I had no sound on my Inspiron
b130. This may be a hardware bug, since I have anecdotal evidence that
this happens with the laptops stock install of XP as well. Regardless
of cause, adding the following snippet to powersaved's resume scripts
has fixed the problem.
## This is a terrible hack for what is probably a bug somewhere else
if [ -x /etc/init.d/alsa-utils ]; then
/etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
fi

Hi Nate,
I hope you understand, that I can't add such a hack to powersaved. The
real solution would be to fix the hardware or the driver. If that is not
possible, we would need a hardware database, where problematic hardware
is listed (plus it's proposed workarounds). So if your hardware is found
in this database, the corresponding action is taken. Maybe HAL will
provide such functionality in the future, but it doesn't atm and I'm
reluctant to add a alsa-utils restart, even for hardware, which doesn't
need it (which is the vast majority).
Luckily for you, powersaved provides proper hooks, for your case:
Open /etc/powersave/sleep, and add "alsa-utils" to the following
variables like:
SUSPEND2DISK_RESTART_SERVICES="alsa-utils"
SUSPEND2RAM_RESTART_SERVICES="alsa-utils"
This should solve your problem. Given the reasoning above and the
proposed solution, I'm closing this bug now.
Cheers,
Michael
