Interesting question. > > > -- > Reg.Clemens > reg@xxxxxxx Hi Reg. Apart from the card limit, and snd-usb-audio lines the rest is doing zilch, and must say I've never seen an alias for a sound card before, that says "NONE". I think I'd remove it all, and just add a couple of lines for snd-usb-audio as above. I've never used a card limits line, and don't believe it's necessary. Run depmod -a as root after setting up /etc/modprobe.conf, then reboot, and see if you have sound again. Do a, cat /proc/asound/cards , which should show your cards in the correct order. Open Alsamixer as user on the CLI, which will show the default card. If you want to see the mixer settings for the intel card, start Alsamixer as, alsamixer -c 1 All the best.
