I had the same problem in Ubuntu Lucid on a Sony VAIO VPCEB1M1E. I've run hda-analyzer, and under Node[0x19] PIN, changed Widget Control VREF from 80 to HIZ. Problem solved, sound restored.
However, running hda-analyzer and clicking through that every time is somewhat laborious, so I've downloaded the hda-verb utility, compiled it, and added a script to rc.local to invoke it this way: /PATH/TO/hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x19 SET_PIN_WIDGET_CONTROL 0x60 0x60 is the code for the constant VREF_HIZ. ** Changed in: alsa-driver (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- [Realtek ALC269 ]No sound on Sony Vaio VPCEB1j1e Lucid Alpha3 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/534372 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
