Package: alsa-utils
Version: 1.0.19-2
Severity: normal
Some time during the last 3 days, sound stopped working on my box.
I can't see the snd_* modules loaded. I'm sure if I'll load them
manually, they'll start working. But earlier they were automatically
loaded. So what really got changed in the last 3 days.
I look at the NEWS for this package and this is what it says:
alsaconf was upstream's way to detect sound cards and generate
system-wide ALSA configurations. However, this should have been
unnecessary for a very long time, with the introduction of udev
support and its automatic hardware detection. If this isn't the
case for you, it's a bug which should be filed and fixed properly.
I see that you recommend filing a bug report, thus this bug report. I'm
not sure what exactly caused it.
But I'm sure this erratic behavior is because of something else. :-)
Because even the wireless drivers don't load any more. I already have
udev from unstable at version 0.140-2.
What else do you think I should check ?

Closing bug report as I think this is invalid (or at least not related to
alsa-utils)

Hi Elimar,
I just upgraded my other laptop also. And now it is suffering the same problem.
No Sound. No wireless. No track pad et cetera.
I'm sure the problem lies somewhere else. Users like me get such screwed up
bugs for using a mix of testing + unstable + experimental.
Hence, I think there's no point hunting for the problem in alsa because it
seems to be a more generic problem elsewhere.
Thank you for your help.
