[Solved] kernel26 2.6.38.7-1 broke my sound (ICE1712)
lspci:
03:07.0 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies Inc. ICE1712 [Envy24] PCI Multi-Channel I/O Controller (rev 02)After an update, I have no sound. I'm not doing anything dumb like not setting a default sound card or testing it with my levels muted. Is there anything I could try short of filing a bug report?

Sorry couldn't hear you, can you turn the volume up a little?

You can downgrade to check if you get the sound back.

That is not helpful: if you can't find anything positive to post, please refrain. You'll not be warned again.

Re: [Solved] kernel26 2.6.38.7-1 broke my sound (ICE1712)
A-ha! It was the "Multi Track Internal Clock" parameter. It was set to "IEC958 Input", an external clock source, which was not connected. I had to set it to "96000" and my audio came right to life. Damn, I had the feeling something like this was the case. So it was me being dumb after all 
This is on a high-end audio production card with 10 inputs, 10 outputs, XLR, SPDIF, word clock routing, MIDI, etc. The setting it was on made my card wait for a clock to set the frequency (which it never got), so ... no sound. Just a small change in the kernel update, no sweat
