Hello everyone.
The sound isn't working on my debian live usb.
I've installed pavucontrol hoping that this would turn on the sound somehow. But it hasn't.
The program is showing RS880 HDMI audio [Radeon HD 4200] as my output device.
The play back bar moves when I play video on youtube but there is no sound.
On the configuration tab, I've tried all the options under 'built-in audio' - but none of these seem to work.

Not sure why there appears to be two sound cards...
On a Ubuntu site about a similar problem with the same sound card, they suggest creating /etc/asound.conf and adding code to it http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1647400
However, at this point, I'm a bit lost.
Can someone help please?
Hi I a running Ubunto 12.04 on a HP PC with an onboard intel analaog sound card
(ALC662) and a HDMI connection into my TV.
I use this PC for Mythtv and Kodi using the sound over HDMI which works a treat in MythTV however I cannot get the sound to work on Kodi, Firefox or any other app which I presume is down to misconfigured ALSA setup, I had this working previously but it stopped and I am not sure why, possible updates.

I tried setting my FiiO-Dac as default alsa sound device using changes in my alsa.conf, but after a reboot, alsa always went back to my broken onboard sound. Help would be appreciated.

Hello
I have linux mint 17.1 cinnamon installed on my computer, but the surround sound is not working (I only get stereo from two speakers)
When I run lspci I can see that my card is called
C-Media Electronics Inc CMI8738/CMI8768 PCI Audio (rev 10)
there is another embeded card that came with my computer called
[AMD/ATI] Trinity HDMI Audio Controller
but I have my speakers hooked up to the first one and I have selected this card in the "output device" option on the lower right hand side of the screen, and I have selected the sound setting "analgog 4.0 surround".
My surround sound used to work when I had windows xp and xubuntu installed on an older computer with the same surround sound card attached. So I can't understand why it is not working now.
Can anyone help me with this?
when I run
aplay -l
I get:

This is very frustrating, I am not super computer geek but am able to google potential solutions on google.
All potential remedies so far have failed.
This is what I get when a put Alsamixer in the terminal

│ Chip: Intel Valleyview2 HDMI
and in the middle is two 00 and S/PDIF
If I go Aplay -l in the terminal, I get this.

Hello everyone.
I have just installed debian stable non-free onto my hard drive but the sound isn't working.
I've been to the debian site https://wiki.debian.org/SoundConfiguration and found that 'users' don't automatically have access to audio (for security reasons).
So I did the following command as root (sudo):
Code:
adduser USER_NAME audio
Now when I am 'user', I can get sound.
I also did:
Code:
chgrp cdrom /dev/sr0
adduser USER_ID cdrom
This allows 'user' to get sound from the cdrom.
I then went onto the debian soundfaq https://wiki.debian.org/SoundFAQ
From the 'lspci -v' command, I get these 2 outputs which have the word 'audio' in it:
Code:
01:05.1 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RS880 HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 4200 Series]
Subsystem: Giga-byte Technology Device 960f
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 19
Memory at fdefc000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 3
Capabilities: [a0] MSI: Enable- Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit+
Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel
00:14.2 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) (rev 40)
Subsystem: Giga-byte Technology Device a102
Flags: bus master, slow devsel, latency 32, IRQ 16
Memory at fe024000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2
Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel
So I have 2 sound cards.
The debian website says: 'If sound does not work for root account as well, then that means that either your sound card is not supported by Debian or it was not configured properly'.
Ok, so the first part of the statement is worrying.
So I went to the debian device driver check page http://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/ and did 'lspci -n'.
The output can be pasted onto their web page and debian will say if the sound cards are supported.
The web page shows that the sound cards are supported:
Quote:
10024383 Yes Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) snd-hda-intel v2.6.25
10029715 Yes Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RS880 [Radeon HD 4250] radeon v2.6.35-
1002970f Yes Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RS880 HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 4200 Series] snd-hda-intel v2.6.27-
So now I'm guessing that my sound cards are 'not configured properly'. But I've run a Youtube video and then changed the sound cards under alsamixer and I still don't get sound.
Is there is a simple solution to this please? Thank you in advance.
Dear all,
I have recently upgrade my distribution, everything worked fine except for the sound system.
The audio stops working after a while. I lose the sound after several minutes of Skype use or while watching videos in my browser, it just happens....
But not only Skype or video audio stops, all sounds stop as well. I need to reboot the system to get the sound back, and then the same, at certain point all sounds disappear.
I tried many things that I found (reinstall alsa, kill and restart pulseaudio, install pavucontrol) but none of them seems to work.
This is the result of aplay -l
card 0: MID [HDA Intel MID], device 0: ALC889 Analog [ALC889 Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: MID [HDA Intel MID], device 1: ALC889 Digital [ALC889 Digital]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
The weird thing is that the audio meter of the output sound from pavucontrol shows signal. The bar moves when receiving sound but no sound can be listened.
Typing pulseaudio with or without sound gives me:
E: [pulseaudio] pid.c: Daemon already running.
E: [pulseaudio] main.c: pa_pid_file_create() failed.
I though the second line was telling that something went wrong, but the sound works at the beginning even with that message.
I do not know what else to do. Any help would be more than welcome since I'm really frustrated.
Thank you very much for your help.

Thank you very much.
I just installed Ubuntu 14.04 on my Aspire E11 laptop. Everything works except sound. Nothing is muted. Alsamixer is in strange condition with no bars. Normally I find fixes by googling a question then finding then pasting commands into the terminal but all to no avail. I still have no sound. Any feedback would be appreciated.
Pulse audio controls show everything as normal with nothing muted.
This is the output forlspci -nnk | grep -i audio

I am trying to open pavucontrol in debian with the xfce desktop.
The error message is:
Code:
Connection to Pulseaudio failed. Automatic retry in 5s
In this case this is likely because PULSE_SERVER in the Environment/X11 Root Windows Properties or default-server in client.conf is misconfigured.
I am having trouble getting sound and configuring the settings.
There is no sound setting in the Settings Manager of xfce.
Also, every time I change alsamixer to my hdmi sound card it keeps going back to the default analog sound card when I exit the program.
How can I access the system settings on the desktop or do I need to change a file setting from the terminal?
