no sound on toshiba satellite a105

[Jgibson]

I've been through every posting and bug report on this issue. I had started with Ubuntu 8.04, upgraded to 8.11, then again to 9.04 and had the same problem. NO sounds plays at all through the speakers, either system sounds or sound files through Rhythmbox. I've unmuted all channels in alsamixer. I've upgraded the alsa drivers to 1.0.19. I've tried numerous options in the alsa-base.conf, notably model=toshiba, model=basic, and model=3stack. Nothing seems to work. Argh!

I got this to work by changing both the alsa-base.conf and the options.conf files with the line "options snd-hda-intel model=lenovo".

This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ .

If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p alsa-base 384620

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.
