** Description changed: - I do not know if this is a bug. I have installed every ubuntu distribution for at least the last 5 years and the latest distro 12.4 which I installed as a fresh install is the only one that I have had any sound problems with. I have tried all the usual basic things to prove drivers and sound cards are visible and loaded and I cant find anything wrong. Everything else appears to be working well including compiz and the cube. + I do not know if this is a bug.

Everything else appears to be working well including compiz and the cube. The sound has been off from the first boot after installation and before anything else has been installed or altered. yours hopefully, Graham Innes - ProblemType: Bug - DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 - Package: alsa-base 1.0.25+dfsg-0ubuntu1 - ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-24.37-generic-pae 3.2.14 - Uname: Linux 3.2.0-24-generic-pae i686 - NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia - AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24. - AplayDevices: - **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** - card 0: SB [HDA ATI SB], device 0: ALC861 Analog [ALC861 Analog] - Subdevices: 1/1 - Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 - ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu7 - Architecture: i386 - ArecordDevices: - **** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices **** - card 0: SB [HDA ATI SB], device 0: ALC861 Analog [ALC861 Analog] - Subdevices: 1/1 - Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 - AudioDevicesInUse: - USER PID ACCESS COMMAND - /dev/snd/controlC0: graham 1814 F.... pulseaudio - Card0.Amixer.info: - Card hw:0 'SB'/'HDA ATI SB at 0xfdff4000 irq 16' - Mixer name : 'Realtek ALC861' - Components : 'HDA:10ec0861,14627254,00100300' - Controls : 21 - Simple ctrls : 13 - Date: Sun May 6 14:17:32 2012 - InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release i386 (20120423) - PackageArchitecture: all - ProcEnviron: - TERM=xterm - PATH=(custom, no user) - LANG=en_US.UTF-8 - SHELL=/bin/bash - SourcePackage: alsa-driver - Symptom: audio - Symptom_AlsaPlaybackTest: ALSA playback test through plughw:SB failed - Symptom_Card: Built-in Audio - HDA ATI SB - Symptom_DevicesInUse: - 1814 graham F.... pulseaudio - PID ACCESS COMMAND - Symptom_Jack: Green Line Out, Rear - Symptom_Type: No sound at all - Title: [HP Compaq dx2200 MT, Realtek ALC861, Green Line Out, Rear] No sound at all - UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) - dmi.bios.date: 08/11/2008 - dmi.bios.vendor: Phoenix Technologies, LTD - dmi.bios.version: MS7254 1.10 - dmi.board.name: 0A48 - dmi.board.vendor: MSI - dmi.chassis.asset.tag: HUB6270JNK - dmi.chassis.type: 3 - dmi.chassis.vendor: MSI - dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnPhoenixTechnologies,LTD:bvrMS72541.10:bd08/11/2008:svnHewlett-Packard:pnHPCompaqdx2200MT:pvr:rvnMSI:rn0A48:rvr:cvnMSI:ct3:cvr: - dmi.product.name: HP Compaq dx2200 MT - dmi.sys.vendor: Hewlett-Packard - mtime.conffile..etc.modprobe.d.alsa.base.conf: 2012-05-06T13:43:39.646386 + Sorry all, this problem was caused by the ALSAMIXER automute settng which was enabled and only required to be disabled. + I knew nothing about the ALSAMIXER controls untill I read a mailing list concerning the same problem. However since my install was a new one and not an upgrade this setting must be the default one and must have caused problems for many.
