 I would do this for testing purpose, or build a current kernel with
 current version of alsa included.
 
 

Installing the latest ALSA on my current kernel (3.2.0) worked flawlessly
so far. I did notice that after the first restart of the system the audio
worked for some time and then stopped. This hasn't occured again so far but
I am testing to see what will happen further. If the problem continues I may
try with the 3.9 kernel.

I uset the alsa-compile.sh script from alsa-project.org however it has a
bug. On line 457 the script is trying to check if the current kernel
source package (linux-source-3.2) is installed however the script is using:

linux-source-$(uname --kernel-release | sed 's/-.*$//')

to match against the kernel version. This will output: 3.2.N 
However in Debian the kernel source packege is: linux-source-3.2 or
linux-source-3.9 so the pattern is 3.N. I changed the script to suit my
needs locally - I actually hardcoded it to my package name and installed. 
I am trying to register with the ALSA project and report this bug but am
unable to since I can't seem to find the answer to the captcha question...
Anyway a correct sed regex in this case would be:

uname --kernel-release | sed 's/.[0-9]-.*$//'

in order to omit the last . (dot) and digit.

Thanks for your help.
Cheers,
   Borislav.

No sound on Wheezy with HDA Intel PCH, ALC887-VD, MB Gygabyte Z77-DS3H

2013-07-09 Thread Borislav Sabev
Hello to all.
I am posting this to alsa-user and debian-user simultaneously, hope it is
not a violation of the rules. It now seems that my original email to this
newsgroup was not posted. I am now sending it through gmane.

I have no sound of my freshly installed workstation. I did a trageted
install. As listed:

MB is: Gygabyte Z77-DS3H
Sound Card is: ALC887-VD

When I launch alsamixer it seems to work fine however when I try to switch
sound cards via
F6 and choose 0 HDA Intel PCH it exits and prints cannot load mixer
controls: Invalid argument

During boot the following line appears 36 times in my boot log:
amixer: Mixer hw:0 load error: Invalid argument
An additional warning I can see in the boot.log is:
PulseAudio configured for per-user sessions ...

Some more information:

- I am a part of the audio group
- ALSA Driver version is: 1.0.24.

- 'aplay -l, aplay some WAV file, cat /proc/asound/cards , cat
/proc/asound/modules, cat /proc/asound/card*/codec* | grep -i code':

'lspci -knnvv':

'amixer' output:
http://pastebin.com/xXSp46x6

'lsmod | grep snd':
http://pastebin.com/ZYJmc7s3


I tried to install (update) alsa from wheezy-backports but it seems that the
version there is the same as the one ins stable?
Next step would be compiling upstream alsa or? Any Ideas? I've been fiddling
around with this for a day now an thought it is time to post for help. Do
you need any additional info?

How can anyone help me? :)
Thanks in advance.

 Let's start with 'aplay -l' and 'lsmod | grep snd'. Anything interesting 
 in 'dmesg' and/or /var/log/syslog?
 
 Kind regards,

Hey guys. I have this same problem on a Gigabyte Z77-DS3H motherboard.

When I try to select the 'HDA Intel PCH' it gives the exact same:
cannot load mixer controls: Invalid argument

I think I am also seeing this flash several times during boot but I cannot
confirm since it passes too fast to see. Nothing seems relevant in kern of
debug logs.

Any ideas?
