resulted in mute audio. ALSA mixer shows volumes on. speaker-test provides no audible output.

System had two video adapters (GeForce 560 Ti) in SLI, each with intel audio (not used), and a EVGA 132-YW-E178-A1 nForce 780i SLI FTW mainboard with nvidia MCP55 chipset using snd_hda_intel.

Pulse audio volume control does no show 5.1 output, only dummy stereo.

Am the only one experiencing this?

I tried to downgrade to linux-lts but stopped at nvidia dependency snag.

Here's a clue:

⋯$ aplay -l
aplay: device_list:252: no soundcards found...

⋯$ aplay -L
null
    Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)
pulse
    PulseAudio Sound Server
default
    Default ALSA Output (currently PulseAudio Sound Server)

Yet there are three sound devices in the system.

 ⋯$ lspci -vv | grep Audio
00:0f.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation MCP55 High Definition Audio (rev a2)
03:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GF114 HDMI Audio Controller (rev a1)
04:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GF114 HDMI Audio Controller (rev a1)

aplay run as root can find sound devices but run as user it cannot?

In my pc applay works fine both in the regular use but my problem is more odd, the follow comand does not work:
aplay -D plughw:0,3 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav

no sound at all
I have an Asus AT3N7A-I
this is my out as my own user...
