A workaround is to follow the recipe here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=804479
It gives good sound as far as I have tested, but it isn't exactly straight out of the box. To recap: 1. cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel 1 [NVidia ]: HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia 2. aplay -l // lots of devices here. I found Nvidia had 1,3;1,7;1,8;1,9 3. modify /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf and fix these lines: defaults.ctl.card 0 defaults.pcm.card 0 defaults.pcm.device 0 to read as such: defaults.ctl.card NVidia defaults.pcm.card NVidia defaults.pcm.device 7 4. reboot There is also another solution which gives very metallic and bad sound, found here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-6306252.html which is to set $ cat /etc/asound.conf pcm.!default { type hw card 1 device 7 } -- No sound on HDMI on intel nm10 and nvidia ION https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/656071 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
