I spoke with Takashi. He was helpful and gave me a kernel patch to try
but I either didn't apply it properly or it didn't fix the sound issue.
He suggested I get a copy of the 3.9 or 3.10 kernel source files. Open the
sound/pci/hda/patch_realtek.c file and add this line with the + to the file.
-------------
static const struct snd_pci_quirk alc861_fixup_tbl[] = {
+ SND_PCI_QUIRK(0x1043, 0x1253, "ASUS W7J",
ALC861_FIXUP_FSC_AMILO_PI1505),
SND_PCI_QUIRK(0x1043, 0x1393, "ASUS A6Rp", ALC861_FIXUP_ASUS_A6RP),
SND_PCI_QUIRK_VENDOR(0x1043, "ASUS laptop", ALC861_FIXUP_AMP_VREF_0F),
SND_PCI_QUIRK(0x1462, 0x7254, "HP DX2200", ALC861_FIXUP_NO_JACK_DETECT),
--------------
I made the kernel and booted it from grub but I didn't get any sound. Here's my
alsa-info output.

It's also possible I did it wrong, I've never had to modify/compile a
kernel before.

Title:
No sound on laptop
Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Ubuntu 12.10
Asus W7J Laptop
Soundcard: Realtek ALC600
I am not getting ANY sound from speakers or headphones. I have tried
playing CD's, looking at YouTube videos..no sound. The only sould I
ever get is on initial startup when the ASUS logo appears. I have
looked at other forums. and looked at alsamixer, there is nothing in
the master column apart from 00 and definately NO Auto Mute! Yes I
have made sure nothing is muted as well. I have had a look in the
BIOS setttings and no luck there either.
00
master
(nothing between the "00" and "master" and no column above the "00")
The fields I have are below.
< Master > PCM CD S/PDIF S/PDIF
Default Beep Caller ID Off-hook
I have also gone and re-installed Ubuntu..still no luck.
Please Help
