Title:
[Alienware 18, Realtek ALC668, Speaker, Internal] Playback problem
Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Bug seems similar to another reported bug with Alienware 18 laptops.
It should be Realtek ALC3661 however it shows up as ALC668. Sound only
comes out of 1 Channel, which appears to be subwoofer. Unlike the
other bug, closing the lid appears to have no effect on sound.
When doing the bug test, it said sound would alternate between 2
channels, however I only heard one consistent sound. It did not
alternate. I believe it is playing from the subwoofer only. I would
love to know more about how to route the sound to the proper speakers.
I attempted modifications to daemon.conf in pulse and .asoundrc but
have not found the correct configuration yet.
This laptop is equipped with 2.1 Surround and should play sound
accordingly. Also, alsamixer only shows (1) speaker control, whether
this is normal I am unsure.
