terriblespirit · 2013-05-16 11:32:30

/etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf

options snd-hda-intel model=laptop

then reboot

terriblespirit's post above solved the problem for me. Thanks buddy!

terriblespirit · 2013-05-16 13:42:13

but headphones do not work(

Azd325 · 2013-05-16 13:50:14

Did you also try another model because laptop is a bit too general!

terriblespirit · 2013-05-16 14:31:04

Azd325, thanks. Changed to model=acer and all work very well

This worked for me Thanks!

Glad to hear this, guys

Didn't work for me

VIA VT17xx/VT18xx/VT20xx
========================
  auto		BIOS setup (default)

Looks like I don't even have the option of fixing it...

Azd325 · 2013-05-16 21:08:58

Is a bit old but maybe take look on it http://alsa.opensrc.org/Via

Do you have more than one Soundcard?

ludenticus · 2013-05-18 20:32:02

I'm sorry to post that I must run alsamixer everytime I boot, because "Speaker" is put to "0" value. Under 3.8 series I hadn't this issue.

Even with changing your modprobe options?

Did you try to store your state with

alsactl store

ludenticus · 2013-05-20 14:21:41

@Chehri. After your post, I created as root the sound.conf in /etc/modprobe.d with "options snd-hda-intel model=laptop" as suggested by @terriblespirit. At reboot, Speaker was again set to "0".

@Azd325. I ran alsamixer as normal user and as root to change the "Speaker" value. Afterwards I followed your advise and typed (as root) "alsactl store". At reboot, Speaker was again set to "0".

For me too!! Thanks!!

I faced with the same issue on my Acer Aspire v3-571G, resolved by adding

/etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf

options snd-hda-intel model=laptop-amic

Installed such cards:

$ head -1 /proc/asound/card0/codec#0
Codec: Realtek ALC269VB
$ head -1 /proc/asound/card0/codec#3
Codec: Intel PantherPoint HDMI

Thanks a lot, guys!

P.S: HDMI output not tested yet....

EasySly · 2013-05-25 18:38:14

After upgrade at 3.9.3-1 nothing helps Even options snd-hda-intel model=laptop-amic (

UPD: Helps only update kernel to 3.10.0rc2... Problem disappeared without additional configuration in modprobe.d. It seems there is a regression in 3.9 related to such sound cards

EasySly · 2013-05-27 07:36:47

Finally found the workaround for my case. In prev post I describe that after upgrade 3.10.0rc2 everything is working... This is a half true.

Problem that everything is working was in that the during reboot in headphone jack was input a headphone. If there no headphone in jack - no sound.
Thus I do such things to resolve this problem:
1. Input headphone.
2. Reboot.
3. Make sure that sound exists.
4. Get headphone from jack
5. Make sure that sound exists from speakers.
6. Execute from console:

sudo alsactl store

7. Reboot without headphone in jack

And sound exists!!!!

I hope this information will help someone!

Enjoy!

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to chime back in with this as I've been quite busy and haven't had a chance to try some of these suggested fixes.

Right now I'd say I have a sufficient work around for my system. That was suggested by ludenticus in post #15. Running alsamixer I select my sound card with F6 and turn off auto-mute. This stops the flicker, however the flicker of headphones thinking they're plugged in still happens, visually I see this on the gnome-panel with a headphone icon popping up. There is also the side effect that if I ever wanted to plug in headphones and not have sound come out of the speakers, I'd have to manually mute them. This would be an issue with my laptop, but my desktop (which is the computer with the issue) is fine. So this works for me, but is by no means "fixed".

I haven't tried the modprobe options as this works right now and I hesitate to possibly break things further though it seems like there is some success. I could imagine switching to a module that didn't know my front panel headphone jack (which on my case is so bad that it doesn't work properly in the first place) doesn't exist, which again I could imagine would not be ideal for some people, but would fix it in my case.

All that said, I'm glad to see some people have had successful work arounds, but the issue remains unsolved.

Cheers,
-Koopa

You should really try the modprobe model method
Run this

head -1 /proc/asound/card0/codec#0

To find your codec. Then add it to your modprobe.conf like how it describes in the wiki or here in the thread. You can change everytime back if it isn't working and more things break. You should also post the result of this command. That we're seeing what you have.

Thanks, I'll try it later tonight when I have more time. I was giving it a shot this morning, but haven't had any luck. Here's the output of that command.

$ head -1 /proc/asound/card0/codec#0
Codec: Realtek ID 892

Couldn't find an ALC892 on that model list, though found somewhere that ALC880 might work, added it to modprobe.conf with no luck.

If you're curious, this is the motherboard I have.

I'll try some different model numbers tonight.

Thanks,
-Koopa

Azd325 · 2013-05-31 14:08:55

Yep, you have the

ALC892

codec what should implemented since 1.0.21 http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index. … dec_driver

Maybe try something from ALC882/883/885/888/889 or maybe somebody else know more about this model.

Users of the VIA chips (like me) can apply patches found here:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound.git/

in the for-next branch and compile the kernel manually. (Dearest music, don't ever leave me again!)

These changes should be merged into Linux soon.

Update: The changes have been merged 7 days ago, v3.10-rc5 ships with those.

Just wanted to say I upgraded from 3.8.11-1 -> 3.9.4-1 and I have no audio problems.

relgueta · 2013-07-05 04:40:13

well, here im, using 3.10 and still sound issues.

My problem, load kde, play music, speakers works fine, plug the headphones and works fine, unplug the headphones and no more sound in the speakers, only in the headphones. Try with:

#options snd-hda-intel model=dell-laptop 
#options snd-hda-intel model=dell-eq
options snd-hda-intel model=3stack
#options snd-hda-intel model=laptop
#options snd-hda-intel model=ref
#options snd-hda-intel model=ref-no-jd
#options snd-hda-intel model=5stack
#options snd-hda-intel model=5stack-no-fp
#options snd-hda-intel model=dell-3stack 
#options snd-hda-intel model=dell-bios
#options snd-hda-intel model=volknob
#options snd-hda-intel model=auto
#options snd-hda-intel model=dell

all of them and always the same.

00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 02)

Codec: SigmaTel STAC9228

im downgrading to 3.8 until this is fixed.
