Dear Michael, There is still mo sound out of my box :-( I have the following (k)ubuntu alsa packages installed: alsa-base, version 1.0.17 alsa-utils, version 1.0.17 linux-sound-base, version 1.0.17
I added the lines as you described and used /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart. This did not change the situation. I also tried the command: alsa reload. This led to the same result. Do you think it is worth installing the newest version 1.0.18a of the alsa-driver from the project homepage? I would be very grateful for any help or good hint.
