Comment 27 for bug 1828136

If I look at the sound settings using pavucontrol (I don't normally use gnome and don't seem to have a program called gnome-sound-setting installed) then under the configuration tab I see the nvidia hardware but not the built in audio. (The nvidia card has only HDMI and my speakers don't have that input, so I can't try using that. I don't have any devices with HDMI input.)

After running 'alsa force-reload' the built-in audio appears as a configuration option.
