no audio with intel ich9 chipset

[backslash]

Hi folks,
I have a fresh install of kubuntu jaunty jackalope, and i have no sound at all. I tried reinstall intrepid and it works out of the box after installing, but jaunty doesn't.
My notebook is hp dv6-1014el

I have a:
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 3629
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 22
Memory at dd000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
Capabilities: <access denied>
Kernel driver in use: HDA Intel
Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel

and codec is:
Codec: IDT 92HD75B3X5

modules seems to be loaded correctly:
$ lsmod | grep snd
snd_hda_intel 435636 2
snd_pcm_oss 46336 0
snd_mixer_oss 22656 1 snd_pcm_oss

snd_page_alloc 16904 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm


I've found many instruction to make it work on ubuntu forum, but someone says me that kubuntu works different from ubuntu (no pulse). So i'm asking here.

I tried alsa restart and it did it without any errors.
When i try to play sound (i.e. from settings->notifications, or settings->sound->test HDA intel) i found no errors on syslog or .xsession-errors.

Is it possible that intrepid works oob and jaunty not? is an upgrade or downgrade ?

Thanks for help.

Re: no audio with intel ich9 chipset

I am running a Sony VAIO laptop buy my audio chip is the same as yours and my lspci and lsmod readings are almost identical.

What controls are showing on your mixer window? I have PCM at 100%, and the Front and Master are also at 100%. (I mute Front) to redirect sound to earphones only.)

Re: no audio with intel ich9 chipset

I have all at 100% nothing muted.
Now i'm using intrepid till i solve with jaunty

Do you have also my codec? Your sound works oob or have you have to do somthing?

[GreyGeek]

Re: no audio with intel ich9 chipset

My sound worked out of the box. The only thing I changed was adding the Mic controls to KMixer.

Re: no audio with intel ich9 chipset

ok thx, but do you have the same codec as mine (IDT 92HD75B3X5) ?
to look for the codec run:
head -n1 /proc/asound/card0/codec#0

nobody else could help me?

It's ICH9 but the codec is: Codec: Realtek ALC262

Re: no audio with intel ich9 chipset

I don't really have time to study this, but if you have no audio, you should always make sure it's not a permission problem. Just eliminate that possibility first. Make sure your normal user account is a member of the group called "audio". Over the years, this has been the source of the majority of my audio problems, especially with *buntu,

And make sure your speakers are plugged in!

Re: no audio with intel ich9 chipset

Make sure your normal user account is a member of the group called "audio".

Now my user is member of audio group but the problem persists.

And make sure your speakers are plugged in!

What do you mean? I have a notebook, my speakers are builtin in the chassis.

Re: no audio with intel ich9 chipset

#6 in the FAQs in my signature has the classic *buntu sound troubleshooting link.

Re: no audio with intel ich9 chipset

i'm reading the faq's, thx for posting.

It's funny that:

If you cannot use hear anything, and you have just installed Ubuntu, then it could very possibly be a bug

My case

Re: no audio with intel ich9 chipset

Mmm, maybe i mistake, but it seems that my card is not supported, how could it be if in intrepid it just works?

Well i have a:
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)

using codec:
Codec: IDT 92HD75B3X5

From this page i choose both intel and idt vendor, but i didn't found neither ICH9 or 92HD75B3X5

Going on searching

Re: no audio with intel ich9 chipset

Couple of ideas here:

1. Boot the 9.04 Live CD. Do you have sound? If yes, then examine the outputs of

aplay -l

and

head -n1 /proc/asound/card0/codec#0

and

lsmod

.

2. Do those same things with your Intrepid installation, or the Intrepid Live CD.

3. It sounds like there is nothing to lose from trying GreyGeek's Realtek ALC262 codec -- it's a long shot, but who knows?

That's about all I can come with on this one.

No

If yes, then examine the outputs of

aplay -l

head -n1 /proc/asound/card0/codec#0

and

lsmod

.

i paste after reboot (i'm with intrepid)

2. Do those same things with your Intrepid installation, or the Intrepid Live CD.

here's the output of intrepid:

k, i'll try

On your 9.04 Live CD, what does

aplay -l

give as the output?

The output from kubuntu 9.04 live cd is:
