Thus, a patch file has to be located on the appropriate firmware path, typically, /lib/firmware. For example, when you pass the option `patch=hda-init.fw`, the file /lib/firmware/hda-init.fw must be present. The patch module option is specific to each card instance, and you need to give one file name for each instance, separated by commas. For example, if you have two cards, one for an on-board analog and one for an HDMI video board, you may pass patch option like below: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ options snd-hda-intel patch=on-board-patch,hdmi-patch ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- 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/874535 Title: Volume Slider Jumps, due to rapidly changing hardware jack sense state Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: In Oneiric Release, The volume slider randomly jump down a notch or two for fraction of a second, even when there is no audio playing on the system. If mute is selected, the menu will quickly flip out of mute mode and back again. This change actually affects the audio output, resulting in pops correlated with the volume changes. nVidia GF106 Audio Controller --- AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
