Not a driver issue. The initscript, however, needs to properly sanitise
levels. In the very near future, this will be done via udev.

** Summary
Setting the PCM volume for me to 74[db gain=0.00, 0.00] solved it.
It was actually changed to 100 by MPD well actually me... but through
MPD... through an MPD client...
I got all gnome applications to leave my PCM volume alone and instead
play with the Headphone's volume(which is not
The problem which I experienced on the Thinkpad t60 seems to be
unrelated: it used to have the hardware volume controls linked to the
software volume controls, which produced the distortion. Now that a
recent update disabled this connection (and keeps the software volume at
the same level when
OK, I solved my distortion problem by abandoning Rhythmbox for the
vastly better Amarok. So the bug is actually there somewhere but there
is mass confusion on this issue. Good luck with it but I am not looking
back!

Distorted sound after upgrade from Gutsy to Hardy
I can't believe there is no fix for this yet. As a new convert to
Ubuntu, I was quite disappointed in the distortion of mid frequencies
compared to WinXP. The sound is muddy and quite unpleasant to listen
to! I have tried the above stuff plus a whole lot of other things like
installing
Exactly same happened to my sister after she upgraded her HP 530 from
Gutsy to Hardy.

I have a HP dv9000 and after a fresh install the 64bit alternate CD... A
lot of tics tics tics ... tics tics tics ... tics tics
while I'm testing on the Sound Recorder... As a result, I can't even use
SKYPE nor Gizmo... I have another partition with Ubuntu 7.10 and it was
working with no problems!
I just now completed a fresh install of Hardy from the 64bit alternate
install cd. The sound is perfectly Ok with no changes on my part. PCM is
set to 80 by default.
My earlier setup which caused the bug was an upgrade from 64bit Gutsy to
Hardy 64bit.

Confirmed this fixes it for me too. Has anyone with this issue tried
running a copy of hardy from a liveCD to determine if this is an upgrade
only bug or something set wrong by default in Hardy that needs fixing? I
don't have time to do it myself at the moment.

I have the same problem on an HP dv6525eo. Conexant CX20549.
I used this guide on Gutsy to get working sound, it doesn't work with
the latest drivers on Hardy:

Distorted sound after upgrade from Gutsy to Hardy
Decreasing the PCM slider on the volume control panel to am minimum seems to
help,
as it no longer sounds as if the volume setting was too high.
However that prevents the sound output from being at it's maximum.

I just noticed something weird.. when I move the PCM slider down, the
distortion goes away completely. I can then move the PCM slider all the
way up again without the distortion coming back.

I have a HP dv9000 and was having what sounds like the same problem.
Turns out the PCM was set somehow to 600 something out of 100. I could
see the exact value in alsamixer. Bumping it down to 100 fixed
everything.

Distorted sound after upgrade from Gutsy to Hardy
Guys i found a simple solution
go to the command line and start up alsamixer
go to the PCM volume change it from 6xx to 100
sound will be ok and no more distortion

I'm having the same problem. This did not happen with the 2.6.24-14
kernel but unfortunately I already uninstalled it. I am using a HP
dv6000 laptop with a conexant sound card.

I match these problems after an upgrade from Gutsy to Hardy on a Compaq

adjustments with either the Sound preferences or the ALSA mixer seem to
make a difference. The distortion is severe enough to render the system

Ah, finally I've found someone with the same problem. I don't know
exactly what Conexant I have in my HP Pavilion dv9000 but the sound is
severely distorted after upgrading to 8.04. It's as if the volume being
sent is far too high for the system to handle but the distortion is
there even if I
Its probably a very similar Conexant if not the same as I have a HP
Pavilion dv6317eu.

This also happens on my Lenovo t60, which has an Intel 82801G. Exactly as
described above: the volume
seems to be far too high, but even with both master and pcm volume lowered the
distortion does not go
away.
