Title:
internal speaker beep gone after Ubuntu 9.10 upgrade.
Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Immediately after the Ubuntu 9.10 upgrade (done 11 November, 2009) the
system beep would no longer occur (e.g. in an xterm for inappropriate
command line input, nor when the beep utility is used). The system
beep was working as expected immediately prior to the upgrade.
A search of tech notices seemed to suggest that the system beep is
controlled by the pcspkr module and could be suppressed by entering
this module name in the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf file. When I
found this entry - apparently added by the OS upgrade - I commented it
out and rebooted the system. However, the system beep is still not
enabled. There is probably something else that needs to be done to re-
enable the system beep on the internal speaker. Note: The host system
does not have external speakers.
The host platform is Intel Core i7 on a Gigabyte EX-58-UD5 main board.
The pcspkr is identified at boot time (from dmesg) -
[ 9.740168] input: PC Speaker as
/devices/platform/pcspkr/input/input6
- as is the on-board Intel HDA audio -
[ 16.299763] HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 22 (level, low) ->
IRQ 22
[ 16.299795] HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: setting latency timer to 64
[ 16.489256] hda_codec: Unknown model for ALC889A, trying auto-probe from
BIOS...
[ 16.489423] input: HDA Digital PCBeep as
/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/input/input6
Advice for re-enabling the system beep on the internal speaker would
be appreciated.
