And I have updated ubuntu twice since. Current kernel is 3.8.0-30-generic. The problem has still not been solved. @Raymond - I do have 3 jacks at the front:
One is blue colored and by icon looks somewhat like RSS feed ones (I seriously don't know what this one is for). The second one is pink colored and the icon shows a microphone. The third and last one is green colored and the icon shows a headphone. And there are 6 of them at the back. I can't tell you what they are for unfortunately. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to alsa-driver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1216512 Title: No sound/low sound in Ubuntu 13.04 Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I have recently installed Ubuntu 13.04 alongside Windows XP on my PC. The problem that I am facing is with sound. First, I will tell about the Hardware (sound card and ports). This is the Sound/Audio drivers info: (Azalia) Integrated High Definition audio Realtek ALC 880 chipset Supports up to 8 audio channels Dolby Pro Logic II compatible Dolby 5.1 There are 3 ports in the front and 6 at the back, of which only two are for Audio output (3.5mm jacks). One at the front and the other at the back. I have tried both of them, by connecting my Speakers/Earphones but from my understanding, the front one does not give out sound at all, whereas the one at the back gives out sound at a very low volume. I have tried Alsamixer and all sound settings, but none help. The kernel is 8.8.0-27-generic. I have also tried 8.9.0-rc8 but it did not solve any problems, and gave me another set of problems. P.S- I have tried it in Windows too, and the speakers/earphones work fine on it.
