Reinstalled different distros several times to no avail, latest one being the most recent Linux Mint. Yesterday I booted into it and... Got sound!! First time since I posted here. Rebooted once and the card card was still alive. Sadly, when I switched on the next day there was no sound again. The only change I can think of: after installing Mint I plugged in my AMD 5850 graphics card. The OS now sees two possible sound outputs. Any ideas?

Reinstalling didn't work. Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Hello everybody. I posted a message with logs and updated info here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2223568 http://www.alsa- project.org/db/?f=6f21090aa1ff38319205d386f02a14f8161c7a78 A couple of days ago I installed Ubuntu Gnome 14.04 in my pc alongside Windows 7 and Linux Mint 15. I was really happy to see my Roland UA-55 Quad-Capture soundcard recognized and working for the first time in Ubuntu! Everything was running just fine: Youtube, mp3, videos,... I even installed Ardour and checked that the inputs of the card were usable too. Well, today I have realized that Ubuntu has gone mute. The card is still recognized in the Sound Settings menu but no sound is coming out of it. I have tried several guides I have found around but to no avail. And, what is worse and more strange, I have just reinstalled and it hasn't solved my problem. Could anyone shed some light here? Thanks in advance for your time.
