This bug would benefit from some input from someone in the Ubuntu sound team, as it appears (from discussion on the Alsa mantis tracker) that Alsa is installed in non-standard locations in Ubuntu. Therefore ubuntu- specific knowledge is required to investigate further! -- No sound in Ubuntu 9.04

Have you tried using a conventional set of headphones plugging into the headphone out socket that is connected to your sound card? My sound has also just stopped working; rebooted this morning for the first time in a few days, and now it just crackles when the system tries to play something.
