Public bug reported:
I just installed Ubuntu Intrepid on a paid of new nvidia-based Mac Minis
(March 2009 model). Neither one has working sound. I've walked through
the entirety of http://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
and tried everything on there short of recompiling ALSA from source.
Plan to try that next, but if that fixes it, then you guys still need a
bug report because the distributed build will need to be fixed, too. :)
Another thing that confuses me is that the troubleshooting tips on that
page all seem to refer to ALSA for everything, while Intrepid appears to
use PulseAudio instead. The only device that shows up in alsamixergui
is PulseAudio. I did try uninstalling pulseaudio and just using bare
ALSA, but that didn't change anything. I also installed the PulseAudio
Device Chooser, and the only device it lists is "Default".
Everything in the system seems to claim that sound is working, and it
all goes through the motions. There's just no sound coming out of the
speakers. I do get the boot chime, and sound works in OS X.
