Kernel 2.6.19 -- No Sound [FIXED]

Hello,

I had my sound working perfectly under 2.6.18-ARCH.

I recently upgraded to kernel 2.6.19-ARCH and my sound does not work.

· I have tried reinstalling alsa.
· alsamixer shows my soundcard (SiS SI7012) and my chip (Realtek ALC658D)
· my sound is unmuted and turned up.
· I do/am not use/ing mpd, nor have I ever.
· I am in the audio group.
· I have tried rerunning alsaconf

I don't know what else to do/try. Any and all suggestions are welcome.

If anymore information is necessary for someone to figure out why the hell I don't have sound, I will try to provide that information.

Thanks in advance!

edit: sorry, I am really embarassed. The problem was a loose cable in the back of my PC. Everything is perfect now, thanks!

Empty your modprobe.conf then.

Re: Kernel 2.6.19 -- No Sound [FIXED]

Empty your modprobe.conf then.

I have done that, unfortunately I still get no sound. My /etc/modprobe.conf prior was:

# --- BEGIN: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. ---
# --- ALSACONF version 1.0.13 ---
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
alias sound-slot-0 snd-intel8x0
# --- END: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. ---

And now it is:

# --- BEGIN: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. ---
# --- ALSACONF version 1.0.13 ---
#alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
#alias sound-slot-0 snd-intel8x0
# --- END: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. ---

Is that what you meant by "empty"ing out my modprobe.conf?
