Public bug reported:

Hi, this is my first bug report, so apologies for any mistakes.

Following an update prompted by the icon in the top right corner of
Gnome, I no longer have any sound, including login. The hardware works
fine in Windows XP.

My desktop is dual boot (XP and 8.10)

I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 Desktop, 
Kernel version is 2.6.27-9-generic,
Onboard sound card is a Realtek ALC655 chip.

Nothing is set to mute/zero, including in alsamixer ( alsamixer -Dhw ).

If I go System>Preferences>Sound and select SiS SI7012 with ALC655 SiS
SI7012 (ALSA)

I get the following:

audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink:
Could not open audio device for playback. 

When set to Autodetect, it 'plays', but I hear nothing.

SiS SI7012 with ALC655 SiS SI7012 (OSS) > Test =  'plays', but I hear nothing.
PulseAudio Sound Server  > Test =  'plays' but I hear nothing.
OSS - Open Sound System  > Test =  'plays', but I hear nothing.
ALSA - Advanced Linux Sound Architecture  > Test = 'plays', but I hear nothing.

I tried:

sudo aptitude --purge reinstall linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils
linux-image-`uname -r` linux-ubuntu-modules-`uname -r` libasound2 and
then rebooted.

This made no difference at all.

cat /proc/asound/cards

shows:

0 [SI7012 ]: ICH - SiS SI7012
SiS SI7012 with ALC655 at irq 18
