I have the same notebook MSI EX720 and exactly the same problem with poor sound quality. Here is what you should do :
Enter this command in your terminal : [code]sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf[/code] And add this lines at the end of file : [code]options snd-hda-intel model=3stack-dig options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1 options snd-hda-intel single_cmd=1[/code] Then, enter a second command in your terminal : [code]sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ricotz/unstable && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade[/code] Reboot, and enjoy an excellent sound quality. :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/525914 Title: Sound problems with RealTek ALC 888 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
