After 8.04->8.10 upgrade sound stopped working hda-intel + ALC883

[Lama El Drama]

machine: aopen 945-DVR minipc.
Sound worked perfectly until an upgrade to Intrepid Ibex 8.10. After that no sound, only a tick occasionly.
Did all fixes i could find on internet, including compile of alsa drivers. It still does not work. Hear some ticks occasionly when tweaking sound in alsamixer.
I have seen an account of an person with an identical system and the same happening.

dmesg attached

There were a few bugs the past days about missing sound. Just by chance:
Can you enable sound again by setting PCM in "alsamixer -Dhw" to 100 or so?

[Lama El Drama (m-e-sanders)]

No, i tweaked all the volumes and options: Master, PCM, front, different combinations of the IEC PCM options in the alsamixer, but still no sound.
Since it has always worked in hardy heron i wonder what has changed to the detection software since then.

[goto (gotolaunchpad)]

Sorry, I don't know what to do then. Are you sure every channel is unmuted? (MM) under a channel means that it is muted, you unmute with the key M . Also you try a "alsactl restore".

[goto (gotolaunchpad)]

Why is this bug filed against empathy?
Setting to incomplete.

[Ian Weisser (ian-weisser)]

Please try the pulseaudio troubleshooting guide at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578 and let us know your results.
Thanks in advance.

[Lama El Drama (m-e-sanders)]

(i have only access to this computer during weekends, so this thread will go slow)
i tried the troubleshooting guide. With speakers on full volume, there is a definite soft click when ubuntu starts up and another one when ubuntu shuts down. For the rest complete silence. What's next? Fresh reinstall? Downgrade to hardy? Upgrade to the newest kernel? or even the development distro?

this is the problem... but i don't know if assign it to policy-kit or pulseaudio.. I'm gonna put it with policykit. In fact if i'm not wrong that's by default now..

I have had this issue since 8.04(introduction of pulseaudio) happening on 5 different systems.

the only way to stop the sound from failing is to do a
apt-get remove pulseaudio

if pulseaudio is buggy why is it in a production version of Ubuntu

[Lama El Drama (m-e-sanders)]

sidenote: bug 298769 is the same, also has no solution.

removed pulseaudio, no result.

compiled alsa 10.0.19, see http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=d960a5398c995fb0c2f35cf0faa7415eceff9af8

Livecd of 7.10 works ok, detects ALC883 instead of ALC888, maybe that is a hint

[Lama El Drama (m-e-sanders)]

Livecd 8.04 has working sound. Note that soundpanel shows ALC883, whereas the codec shows Realtek ALC888

[Lama El Drama (m-e-sanders)]

Just tried out the livecd of 9.04 Jaunty. The sound also does not work. My guess is that the problem is misdetection of the soundcard by alsa (ALC888 instead of ALC883).

[Lama El Drama (m-e-sanders)]

Changed the title of the bug, since the machine has a Realtek ALC883 that is detected as a ALC888

[Burger Leo (burgerleo)]

It would be sad if Jaunty offers no solution to this problem. (But maybe
there will be a fix before april 18 - I hope so)

@DiVoRaM: Please open a new bug report for your issue, same symptoms different reason.

Lama and Burger, after searching a lot about this issue i've found some commits between hardy and intrepid that probably lead to this regression.

The specific commits are:

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-intrepid.git;a=commit;h=f24dbdc61dd7ca6b97c525b40979ab7bd07c0934

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-intrepid.git;a=commit;h=f32a19e3e7e72cc896d02c3d104f58dc972d43ea

However, i'm not 100% sure so we would need some help here.

Anyway, we'll need to add a quirk for the specific subsystem id that you both have.

SND_PCI_QUIRK(0xa0a0, 0x0626, "MP945-VDR", ALC883_6ST_DIG)

I'm proposing ALC883_6ST_DIG from what i've found about your system, but is not necessarily correct.

By the way, Leo your debugging at http://forum.ubuntu-nl.org/index.php?action=printpage%3Btopic=33901.0 was really helpful.

Issue reported at upstream.

First, killall pulseaudio && aplay -Dplughw:0
/usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav

added the suggested quirk
SND_PCI_QUIRK(0xa0a0, 0x0626, "MP945-VDR", ALC883_6ST_DIG)
to patch_realtek.c in the alc883_cfg_tbl. This yielding no sound.

Did it also with
SND_PCI_QUIRK(0xa0a0, 0x0626, "MP945-VDR", ALC883_3ST_6ch_DIG))
Also no sound.

[Andres Mujica (andres.mujica)]

Lama, did your tried what Daniel suggested?

First, killall pulseaudio && aplay -Dplughw:0 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav

Also, to now the right quirk please test which model works fine with intrepid, adding to the end of alsa-base.conf the line snd-hda-intel model=

probably not all of this works for your hardware, but some of them would

I know i am slow, but this concerns my wife's pc and i can only work on it for an hour per week or so.

ALC883_AUTO works fine on intrepid.

[Lama El Drama (m-e-sanders)]

Sound works on 10.04, so closed
