According to the information providedin the report, there are multiple HDMI connections, at least according to pulse. How do you have your speakers connected to your system? If you are using external speakers, please make sure that the analog line-out/headphones out is selected in MATE's sound settings.
If that still doesn't help, try updating the ALSA drivers, as outlined at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/UpgradingAlsa/DKMS. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1604497 Title: Pulseaudio does not start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1604497/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
