Public bug reported:
Hi,
I'm using a Medion Laptop (MD 96370) (sold through Aldi) with Intrepid Alpha 4
in Live CD mode and the sound isn't working (it doesn't under Hardy as well).
The machine is a dual boot Windows/Hardy laptop and the sound works fine in
Vista. The problem may be the same as in Hardy in that I don't think the Intel
HDA sound chip is supported well but I understood it was to be fixed in
Intrepid so I wanted to give Intrepid a go to see if it had been fixed. Some
output that may be of use:
lspci -v |grep Audio
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio
Controller (rev 03)
aplay -l
aplay: device_list:207: no soundcards found...
The alsa-base version is 1.0.16-2ubuntu1. In Sound Preferences, if you
click on the "Test" button, the message that is displayed is
"audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample !
gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument". The
speaker icon in the screen header has a red circle with a diagonal slash
showing. If you right click the icon and select "Open Volume Control",
you get the message "No volume control Gstreamer plugins and/or devices
found."
I looked in the alsa-base file in /etc/modprobe.d and didn't see any
reference to snd-hda-intel but the file date is 15 July 08 so it
probably isn't a generated config file.
Grateful for any advice,
Nick
