Is that the 1.0.18 alsadriver, or the 1.0.18a one you have installed? Which distro are you using, and which desktop (KDE, Gnome) The ouput of the commands as below. cat /proc/asound/cards cat /proc/asound/version lsmod | grep snd (may be /sbin/lsmod, depending on your distro) lspci -vn (may be /sbin/lspci -vn, and just the bit for the soundcard) grep ^Codec /proc/asound/card?/codec* Open alsamixer on the CLI (Gnomes terminal, or KDE's Konsole), and check for muted controls (the M key toggles mute/unmute), and also that sliders like Master, PCM, Front, and CD are up. If your distro has Pulseaudio installed, you may just see one slider. If that is the case, close alsamixer using the ESC key, and reopen alsamixer as below to view all the controls alsamixer -D hw:0 Some things plugged into the USB (usb midi keyboards, webcams, with mics, etc) can also create problems, and again depending on your distro. The USB is started early in the boot process, and you can find that the USB device has grabbed card0, and the actual soundcard which defaults to card0, can no longer use it. There's an easy fix if that is the problem. That's enough for the moment. Post back, and we'll see how things go.
