Public bug reported: My onboard soundcard [HDA Intel, ALC888; snd_hda_intel ] does not show up in sound-settings, nor am I able to play sound thru pulseaudio.
If I kill pulseaudio, it will release locks on the devices in Alsa, and I am able to play sound using Alsa directly, so Alsa seems to be out of the equation. Alsamixer works. My USB-connected [snd_usb_audio] devices like webcam/headphones does show up in PulseAudio, and I am able to use these. I've purged pulseaudio and reinstalled it, removed old pulseaudio configurations in ~/.pulse or /etc/pulse. The problem appeared after upgrade from 10.04 LTS to 12.04 LTS Alpha 1.
