You could post a bit of info please. The output of cat /proc/asound/cards /sbin/lsmod | grep snd /sbin/lspci -v (just the stuff that appears to refer to sound) You could also download the alsa-info.sh script from http://hg.alsa-project.org/alsa/raw-file/tip/alsa-info.sh Make it executable, and run it as user, as below. ./alsa-info.sh It will gather a lot of info about the sound on your machine, and upload it to pastebin. Just post back the link to the pastebin reference when you reply. I have similar problems with my TV card, which has a sound module snd-bt87x, which is notorious for grabbing the card0 position, and effectively disables the actual soundcard from working. I have to set index options for it in /etc/modprobe.conf "options snd-bt87x index=1" which stops it grabbing the card0 position, which the actual soundcard is set to use. You may have to do something similar, if you can track down the sound module that's on this graphics card. All the best.
