Public bug reported:
I'm running a computer with a Soyo K7VME motherboard. The onboard sound
is handled by a VIA V82xx device.
According to everything I've seen, the system is set up correctly.
I followed the instructions at RestrictedFormats[1] to allow my fresh install
of 6.06 to play MP3s, but this didn't work. Programs can play mp3s now, but I'm
not hearing any output. I know the speakers work, I just tested them by
plugging them into my iPod. Audio-out worked Back In The Day when this computer
was running Windows XP, so I don't think the hardware is damaged in any way.
I set out to follow the Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide[2].
It hasn't really helped.
1. Go to a shell and type: aplay -l
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ aplay -l
card 0: V8235 [VIA 8235], device 0: VIA 8235 [VIA 8235]
Subdevices: 4/4

2. Type this into the shell: lspci -v
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ lspci -v | grep -A5 Audio
0000:00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc.
VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 50)
Subsystem: Unknown device a723:10fd
Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 185
I/O ports at e000 [size=256]
Capabilities: <available only to root>
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
4. Now go back to the shell and type sudo modprobe snd-...
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ lsmod | grep ^snd_via
snd_via82xx 28824 1
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
the module was already loaded automatically at boot.
I checked alsamixer, none of the outputs are muted.
I hear no output playing an mp3 in Movie Player, Rhythmbox, gxine or
mpg123.
Clicking the "Test" button in gstreamer-properties for each of the audio
output options produces no output.
and so, even though this is a fresh install, I re-install the audio
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-sound-base alsa-base
alsa-utils
...
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo apt-get install linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils
...
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo apt-get install gdm ubuntu-desktop
and reboot.
and still no sound.
someone at CIALUG suggests[3] blacklisting the snd-via82xx-modem module.
So I made my /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-modem look like this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ grep -v ^# /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-modem
blacklist snd-via82xx-modem
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
And rebooted. No effect.
This was originally submitted at the Ubuntu forums[4], but recieved
little (as of this writing, no) attention. Matthew Nuzum suggested[5] I
file this as a bug here. Thank you for your help.
