I just started alsamixer in a terminal and nothing else (recommended
mutes were already set that way). Immediately after it started I heard a
small speaker crack and without me doing a thing - everything was
working again. It was like it just woke up. I rebooted and the sound was
working just fine. I had tried allot of different settings before and
rebooted a couple of times before without any affect until I launched
alsamixer. Thanks,
Norm

Hi,
Yesterday I upgraded hal and kernel with new releases and then noticed today
that my sound does not work. Applies to games, music files and CD's. The
players appear to be working but nothing comes from the speaker. I checked
the settings in the volume control window. Sound works ok in my other OS
(dual boot) so it should not be a loose connection or broken hardware. I
checked it with both KDE and Gnome, there is no difference. Is any one else
experiencing the same kind of issue after the upgrades??
Does this work if you go back to the old kernel?
[reposting this info from another thread]
Can you try running 'alsamixer' and (M)ute 'Headphone Jack Sense' - and see
if it works?
