I followed this link : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/UpgradingAlsa/DKMS and installed the package.
My Nvidia device has now moved from Card 2 to Card 1 and the system settings->sounds dialog now shows a HDMI/displayport 2 device. I no longer get random crashes of the kernel from snd_hda_intel module. Pulse audio no longer reports that it cannot initialise the device. Current error report from pulseaudio is: Apr 22 12:43:28 Feynmann pulseaudio[3089]: [pulseaudio] source.c: Default and alternate sample rates are the same. Apr 22 12:43:33 Feynmann pulseaudio[3694]: [pulseaudio] source.c: Default and alternate sample rates are the same.

Which does not look serious. However sound still does not work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1170315 Title: Sound device not detected on Nvidia card using nouveau driver To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1170315/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
