[Solved]Alsa not working

Well, Alsa broke. I dont know why, but I just cant play any sound anymore. I remmember gnome saying something about hda-intel not working,
thus dissabling it, but It didnt affected anything.
Have tried loading and unloading the alsa module and alsaconf, and nothing:(

Help, I really dont know what to do.

Re: [Solved]Alsa not working

Have you tried restarting the alsa daemon?

Do this as root. If you get any error messages, post them here:

/etc/rc.d/alsa restart

Re: [Solved]Alsa not working

try putting this in console
amixer set Master 90% unmute
amixer set PCM 85% unmute
try if theres sound, in that case put alsactl store, to create a file '/etc/asound.state' where the volumens preferences are located

This worked for me, though KMix still shows that it's muted, and I can't "unmute" or "mute" things as far as it is concerned.  At least I have sound though.
