It should have worked out of the box. Now your ALSA driver is borked (how did you try to update it?)
Ubuntu no longer builds oss modules with its kernel, so don't try to modprobe those modules (you won't need them anyway). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to alsa-driver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1112688 Title: PCI/internal sound card not detected Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I recently tried to get an external usb sound card (Terratec DMX 6 fire USB) working by installing the ALSA driver for this. I started to follow the instructions here: http://www.alsa- project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Module-usb-6fire Got as far as the part where it said to insert modules as follows: modprobe snd-usb-6fire ; modprobe snd-pcm-oss ; modprobe snd-mixer-oss ; modprobe snd-seq-oss Kept getting errors saying the three oss modules weren't found and basically stopped at this point. I thentried to play back some mp3s as usual - no sound. It looks like the system is recognising the soundcard as a pci device, but the alsa is not recognising anything. My sounds settings show only a 'dummy device'. Not entirely sure what I've done, and tried reverting to Ubuntu core audio modules using: sudo aptitude install linux-ubuntu-modules-`uname -r` linux-generic But get the message: "Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "linux-ubuntu-modules-3.5.0-23-generic" Any ideas what to do now? Thanks in advance... Marty p.s.
