Re: Do must Linux users just live without sound?

I am running the latest version of Ubuntu 9.04 - so whatever version of Alsa comes with that....  I have already run the script you mention.  The output is here:

http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=9e5b4548ded9b389661b0e669ecb5cd7364ff973

I have a "Realtek ALC883" soundcard.

What happens is that if I haven't run Ubuntu for a while (several hours) and I reboot into Linux I get sound for a few minutes.  The sound soon has static in it and then slowly gets more static and quieter at the same time.  by the time it becomes too quiet to hear it is all but static.  At that point it continues to work using the headphone jacks.

Weird eh?

Besides finding out how to upgrade ALSA in your distribution to 1.0.20,
to help others help you, run the script at:

http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh

The script will offer to upload the output to the ALSA project web site,
and give you a URL that you can post here.

Arthur.
