It seems like the issue is gone, but I don't know what I did to fix it. I fiddled with alsamixer, then sudo apt-get install pulseaudio pavucontrol padevchooser and played with both pavucontrol and padevchooser, fiddled with systemsettings (multimedia) then reset to default values sudo apt-get install --reinstall alsa-base installed alsamixergui then deinstalled it (purge) installed alsa-tools-gui, didn't bother figuring out what this actually installed then tried sudo /sbin/alsa force-reload
After that sound seemed ok on Chromium in youtube, went on to try listening to a mp3 with deadbeef and initially the sound was distorted, but managed to put it back to listenable by playing with volume controls. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/779655 Title: [, SigmaTel STAC9227, Green out, Rear] high pich humming when no sound is played, distorted sound when sound is played -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
