Thanks for your bug report. From the information given in your alsa-info output, it appears you have built newer versions of the alsa packages. Maverick has 1.0.23, whereas you have all 1.0.24 components. There is a good chance that this has broken the audio stack on your system. My suggestion is to check the directories under /usr/local and remove anything associated with alsa, or asound. I'd also suggest you check in /lib/modules/$kernelversion, where $kerneleversion is the version of the kernel you are currently running, and remove any modules relating to sound. Then, I'd re-install the kernel package to make sure everything is clean, i.e apt-get --reinstall install linux-image-$kernelversion. The Ubuntu kernel does support your hardware properly, so I don't see any reason why you need to run newer alsa code. If after all of this your sound still doesn't work, I suggest booting a 10.10 live CD, and checking to see if sound works there. If so, then there is more breakage that needs fixing on your system, about which I cannot advise/suggest.
Please get back to me as to whether the above helps. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/779358 Title: [Realtek ALC888] ALSA not working acer aspire 4925. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
