Title: Sound doesn't work can't get the pulseaudio or alsa drivers to work Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Hello, I am having trouble with my sound drivers. The whole thing started with the kernel update to linux-image-3.2.0-31-generic 3.2.0-31.50 (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1059521). First, I got things working with one user: mplayer -ao openal *.mp3 Then when switching to an admin account (with sudo privileges), I can't play sound normally, which worked after the initial buginess started, but has also now stopped working. The same command above works no longer works for the admin user. I have also played with the 'alsamixer' with the admin account. It tells me: $ alsamixer cannot open mixer: No such file or directory The same is no problem for the other non-admin user. Both users are part of the group 'audio'. Somehow it appears to be a hardware problem, but at the same time the permissions somehow are strange as well i.e. the difference between users. I appreciate any help.
