Re: [SLUG] no speaker sound
Hi slug A while ago i had a sound issue on my Compaq CQ61-314TU. Compaq/HP Said they know about but cant fix it in Linux. i found how to fix in ubuntu but fedora does not use /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf:. After a bit of reaching (GOOGLing) i found that the /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf: is the base sound configuration in Red Hat based systems. To fix the problem add these four lines to /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf: Then restart the computer to take affect. options snd slots=snd-hda-intel options snd-hda-intel model=hp-m4 alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1 Note: You may have to create the /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf: as it did not exist in my Fedora 12 Thanks to those reply i got Regards Daryl Thompson -Original Message- From: Daryl Thompson To: slug@slug.org.au Subject: [SLUG] no speaker sound Date: Sun, 24 Jan 2010 02:14:58 +1100 I brought a Compaq Presario CQ61-214TU and install Fedora 12. I have no Speaker Sound, i do have sound when i plug in a head set or external speaker. I have not tested the HDMI output yet as i don't have access to a DH TV with HDMI. I would like to use the internal speakers. Can any one help me please, the Google searches all relate to ubuntu and not much help on Fedora Thanks in advance Daryl -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html

When I stack sign on (eg Ken then chris) the sound is assigned to Ken and Chris does not have access to it. Make sure your sound is not muted. This is a stupid default. I also had problems that it was always muted and I had to reset this on every sign on.

Re: [SLUG] no speaker sound
Hi had the same problem ... until last night. Number of things to try first: You could check whether the audio works in the headphone jack You could kill pulseaudio (use ps, then kill) run alsa-mixer and check whether speaker isnt muted yum install pavucontrol (more powerful mixer) Then you could do what a lot of people do ... do it the windows way ;-( remove and install again. This is what I did (I just post the content of the YUM log) Dec 02 05:02:42 Installed: pavucontrol-0.9.10-1.fc12.x86_64 Dec 02 05:19:47 Erased: alsa-plugins-pulseaudio Dec 02 05:19:48 Erased: bluez Dec 02 05:19:49 Erased: alsa-plugins-pulseaudio Dec 02 05:19:49 Erased: pulseaudio-module-x11 Dec 02 05:19:54 Erased: gnome-bluetooth Dec 02 05:20:05 Erased: pulseaudio Dec 02 05:20:06 Erased: pulseaudio-module-bluetooth Dec 02 05:20:07 Erased: kde-settings-pulseaudio Dec 02 05:31:08 Installed: pulseaudio-0.9.21-4.fc12.x86_64 Dec 02 05:31:12 Installed: blueman-1.21-2.fc12.x86_64 Dec 02 05:31:12 Installed: pulseaudio-libs-zeroconf-0.9.21-4.fc12.x86_64 Dec 02 05:31:14 Installed: bluez-4.58-1.fc12.x86_64 Dec 02 05:31:15 Installed: alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.0.21-2.fc12.x86_64 Dec 02 05:31:15 Installed: pulseaudio-esound-compat-0.9.21-4.fc12.x86_64 Dec 02 05:31:16 Installed: paman-0.9.4-4.fc12.x86_64 Dec 02 05:31:17 Installed: pulseaudio-module-zeroconf-0.9.21-4.fc12.x86_64 Dec 02 05:31:17 Installed: padevchooser-0.9.4-0.10.svn20070925.fc12.x86_64 Dec 02 05:33:41 Installed: gconfmm26-2.28.0-1.fc12.x86_64 Dec 02 05:33:42 Installed: pulseaudio-module-gconf-0.9.21-4.fc12.x86_64 Dec 02 05:33:43 Installed: paprefs-0.9.9-5.fc12.x86_64 Dec 02 05:33:43 Installed: pulseaudio-module-bluetooth-0.9.21-4.fc12.x86_64 Dec 02 05:33:44 Installed: pavumeter-0.9.3-4.fc12.x86_64 On Sun, 2010-01-24 at 02:14 +1100, Daryl Thompson wrote: > I brought a Compaq Presario CQ61-214TU and install Fedora 12. > > I have no Speaker Sound, i do have sound when i plug in a head set or > external speaker.

You could try that, check the configure options to make sure you can see all the possible sound options and then make sure that the built-in speakers are not muted...or whether other options give you sound for the built-in speakers. Just a thought. Regards, Patrick -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
