Title:
Asus P54G1T-M LX, Intel HDA Realtek ALC887-VD Very low sound
Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Changed computer mobo to Asus P54G1T-ML X and installed fresh 12.04 Kubuntu.
The sound can be barely heard with the speaker volume turned up to maximum.
It is probably issue with the Realtek ALC 887 codec, since there is miriad of
problems in linux with that codec in combination with Intel and Nvidia HDA
cards.
I have tried following:
- change card models in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf to: auto, 3-stack,
asus etc. as stated in "HD-Audio-Models.txt" with no success (the ALC887 codec
is just not listed anywhere)
- install of alsa dkms drivers didn't change anything, sound is still very
low
- removing pulse audio also didn't change anything except that Kmix in that
case clearly states for playback device "Intel HDA Realtek ALC 887" card, while
with pulse audio it states "Built-in Audio Analog Stereo", sound remains the
same
- also have tried with some asound.rc configs but it didn't help either
- in alsamixer everything is unmuted and turned up
