If you had your sound set to one speaker system, it could have moved
back to the old default speaker system with the 3.5mm jack. That's what
happened to me last night while playing in tintin-alteraeon and the
speaker I had configured just threw out a tremendous amount of static
instead of the speech it was providing before when this system change
happened.

I have Debian Jessie (loaded as v8-5, but kept updated)/ My sound has been
working, but earlier today I lost the sound.
I've Googled the problem and have tried a number of things. Here are the
results:
comp@AbNormal:~$sudo alsactl init
[sudo] password for comp:
Found hardware: "HDA-Intel" "Realtek ALC887-VD"
"HDA:10ec0887,10438444,00100302" "0x1043" "0x8444"
Hardware is initialized using a generic method
comp@AbNormal:~$
I got a 'pop' from the speakers.
comp@AbNormal:~$sudo alsactl init
[sudo] password for comp:

I have also attached a screenshot of the alsa mixer.
The sound is not muted, and yes, the jack is plugged into the appropriate
jack on the sound card. I know that I have a signal coming in as I am
streaming internet radio).
At this point I don't know what else to try.
Any suggestions will be most welcome.
Thanks in advance.
