 Dear alsa team,
 
 I have installed Debian Lenny on a Sony Vaio PCG-SR1K laptop.  Everything 
 went fine except the sound.
 When I run alsamixer I get the error message
 
 linux alsamixer
 
   alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device

It seems that your user isn't in group audio?

 The sound card I have is
 
 linux lspci
 ...
 00:09.0 Multimedia audio controller: Yamaha Corporation YMF-754 [DS-1E Audio 
 Controller]
 ...
 
 When I run alsaconfig, two cards get detected
 
   ymfpci Yamaha Corporation YMF-754 [DS-1E Audio Controller]
   legacy Probe legacy ISA (non-PnP) chips
 
 the first one is selected and I continue.   Everything looks fine except for 
 the error message from amixer.

 linux alsaconfig 

We don't provide alsaconfig anymore.


Is this bug still valid for you?

 The rest looks ok. Which Kernel are you running. 

linux$ uname -a
Linux oregano 2.6.26-1-686 #1 SMP Sat Jan 10 18:29:31 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

There are no particular kernel options, I think.  Only root=..., ro,
and quiet.

  Ubuntu users [0]
 solved a similar Problem by using the pnpacpi=off kernel option.
 
 [0] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/184725

Ok, from the Grub menu I typed 'e' to edit the boot command.  In the
kernel line I added 'pnpacpi=off' after the 'root=...' option and
before the 'ro quiet' option, separated with spaces.  I then typed 'b'
to boot.  The first time it did not work but hung after 'Setting the
system clock.'  The second time it booted, but it didn't solve the
problem.  'alsaconf' does not work properly and there is still no
sound card in /proc/asound/cards.  

First remark: Isn't the option 'pnpacpi=off' option similar to turning
PnP off in the BIOS menu, as I tried earlier and it didn't work.  That
would be consistent.

Second remark: Even with 'pnpacpi=off' there was a 'Starting ACPI
Services.' in the boot sequence and an 'acpid stopped' (or something
similar) at the very end of the shut down.  I don'T know whether that
means that the 'pnpacpi=off' didn't work for some reason.

 
 Else please check your mixer settings. Is master or pcm mutet?

I don't know how to check that.  amixer and alsamixer wouldn't even
start.

Thanks a lot for your feedback and sorry for the delayed responses
from my side.  I have access to this laptop only occasionally, since
it is not mine but one of a friend and I have installed Linux for her.

Best wishes,

Laurenz.

Here is the requested information.  All commands done by a regular
user with no sudo permissions.  I have also added the lspci command,
since 'cat /proc/asound/cards' didn't find a soundcard, while lspci
does.
