Hi All was this problem solved or Not I also have Alienware 18 I have tried to configure it as above Same deal I think the sound is only coming out from the Sub I have spent a week trying to sort it and have done many re-installs -- 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/1299322 Title: [Alienware 18, Realtek ALC3661] Sound only comes out of subwoofer, and requires lid to be closed then opened to come out of speakers at all Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: To get any sound out of the speakers I need to close the lid of the laptop, let it go to sleep, then re-open it. When I unlock the computer the sound will then work from the speakers. Sound from the speakers is not using all of the speakers, and appears to only come out the subwoofer channel or center channel on the bottom of the laptop. There's no sound from the 'speakers' on the front.
