Public bug reported: My sound was working fine until I allowed the update manager to do the linux-image-2.5.22-15-generic and related updates. After the reboot, System->Preferences->Sound: Devices tab showed USB Audio (as expected) and the tests on the Devices tab worked fine. However when I select the Sounds tab and click Play for any of the system sounds, nothing plays.
While following the sound troubleshooting (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting) instructions I noticed that $cat /proc/asound/modules reported module snd_usb_audio, but /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base contains references to snd-usb-audio (dashes instead of underscores). Correcting the references in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base and rebooting fixed the problem. System is Ubuntu 7.10. $uname -a Linux linux2 2.6.22-15-generic #1 SMP Fri Jul 11 19:25:33 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux Sound card is: Telex USB Audio Converter I hope this helps... ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Sound stops working following update to linux-image-2.5.22-15-generic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/249287 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
