Since about an hour I have a new problem: no sound at all! It happened before I had the chance to change any options. Now I've appended "model=toshiba" (as suggested elsewhere) but it didn't help. However, I noticed that alsamixer doesn't show a control for the "Master" device (only PCM, Mic and Beep). And it also doesn't show any "Capture" devices (this is independent of the "model" option) although they seem to exist:
a...@andicompi:~$ cat /proc/asound/devices 2: : timer 3: : sequencer 4: [ 0- 0]: digital audio playback 5: [ 0- 0]: digital audio capture 6: [ 0- 6]: digital audio playback 7: [ 0- 6]: digital audio capture 8: [ 0] : control a...@andicompi:~$ cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [SB ]: HDA-Intel - HDA ATI SB HDA ATI SB at 0xd0000000 irq 16 And I also noticed two devices called "Caller1" and "Off-hook" that remind me of a modem. There is indeed a modem built into this laptop and "cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#0" shows this: Codec: LSI Si3054 Address: 0 Function Id: 0x2 Vendor Id: 0x11c13026 Subsystem Id: 0x11790001 Revision Id: 0x100700 Modem Function Group: 0x1 The ALC861 is in "codec#3". @Daniel : I also have that "switching to single_cmd" error in my dmesg now. Is there an option to choose the codec slot or interrupt? I searched the ALSA documentation but found only the "index" and "probe_mask" options that seem to be related to this problem. If you'd tell me which options I should try I would post my results! Currently, my alsa-base.conf looks like this: # Prevent abnormal drivers from grabbing index 0 options bt87x index=-2 options cx88_alsa index=-2 options saa7134-alsa index=-2 options snd-atiixp-modem index=-2 options snd-intel8x0m index=-2 options snd-via82xx-modem index=-2 options snd-usb-audio index=-2 options snd-usb-us122l index=-2 options snd-usb-usx2y index=-2 options snd-usb-caiaq index=-2 # Ubuntu #62691, enable MPU for snd-cmipci options snd-cmipci mpu_port=0x330 fm_port=0x388 # Keep snd-pcsp from being loaded as first soundcard options snd-pcsp index=-2 # Power down HDA controllers after 10 idle seconds options snd-hda-intel power_save=10 options snd-hda-intel model=toshiba -- [karmic]snd_hda_intel: audio moves to polling mode and starts repeating (Toshiba A100-259/ATI IXP SB4x0 HD/ALC861) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/391114 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
