Comment 35 for bug 996245

Hi Paul

I have maybe first version of this MB and running Debian wheezy.
I've just installed latest drivers 1.0.25-5.17rc13 - but this didn't fix the problem(in my case) . Still green out is absolutelly silent.

cat /proc/asound/version
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.25-5.17rc13.
Compiled on Dec 4 2012 for kernel 3.2.0-4-amd64 (SMP)

Also my 7.1 speakers didn't run correctly in this case(working as 5.1). Now I'm using 2.1 and gray out (sound is not very good).

Also contacted Gigabyte support to report the problem and for some clarification about BIOS updates or any ideas and they told me : "
