Bug Description
Binary package hint: pulseaudio
First of all, notice that sound used to work well on Jaunty (previously too) so this is likely to be a regression.
I noticed this problem while testing Karmic for the first time (around alpha 2).
There is absolutely no sound on the internal speakers of my laptop.
When I plug headphones, I can hear the sound but it's very low and distort (it looks like a disrupted AM radio signal, if you see what I mean).
**What I have tried:**
Of course, all sound levels were increase as much as possible (alsa-mixer, graphical sound-applet...)
I tried every Profile in "Sound Preferences" -> "Hardware" with no results (currently, and by default, it's "Analog Stereo Duplex")
speaker-test was useless (nothing on speakers, something odd on headphones)
I did a fresh install last Sunday (daily-live) but the problem is still here.
If you need some extra information or investigation, ask me !
(sorry for my English)

John Mylchreest (jmylchreest) wrote : | #5 |
For me the problem was arecord holding open the snd device, this was because of the randomsound init script kicking it off to generate entropy. try lsof | grep snd, and see anything is opening those devices directly. Confirm, first of all with pulseaudio -vv.

Thank you for your answer.
Here are your log.
For pulseaudio -vv, I had to kill the pulseaudio daemon and run the command quickly before it automatically restart.
(otherwise, the command end simply with "Daemon already running")
As you can see, the problem seem to be related to snd, indeed.

Here is another "lsof | grep snd" log but while a sound is being played in Totem.
You can notice that pulseaudio touch the snd device 5 times, is it normal ?

Still the same problem.
I tried, once more, to re-install with a daily-live but no progress.
What can I do ?
Nicolas Delvaux (malizor) wrote : | #10 |
Today I found an old daily-live (06/25 → alpha 2.5 if you prefer) and I tested it.
Sound works properly on this, so this bug came after.
software versions for this .iso:
pulseaudio 1:0.9.15-4ubuntu1
linux 2.6.30-9-generic
Could this be kernel issue ?
How can I figure it out ?

Hi Malaria,
Thanks for testing and confirming the previous versions of the kernel and pulseaudio where this wasn't an issue. That'll help narrow down the regression. The easiest way to determine if this is a kernel issue is to try installing and booting back into the known working 2.6.30-9 kernel. If you still have no sound then it's likely a pulseaudio regression. If sound comes back using the 2.6.30-9 kernel vs the 2.6.31-11 kernel, then it's likely a kernel regression. You can find the old builds of 2.6.30-9 at the following. Please let us know your results. Thanks!

Hi Leann,
I already installed my older daily-live but, after all updates, the old kernel prevented X to start (and I didn't manage to resolve this).
Thank you for your link, I'm currently installing the beta and I will try with some older kernels.
Nicolas Delvaux (malizor) wrote : | #13 |
OK, so, unsurprisingly, the beta has the same issue.
I tried jaunty's kernel, 2.6.30-9 (the one that used to work on the 6/25 daily) and 2.6.30-10 and I got absolutely no sound.
(whereas with an an up-to-date kernel there is "at least" very low and distort sounds on my headphones.)
I also tried with kernel 2.6.31-13 and 2.6.31-14 but this time the original bug came back (see bug description for symptoms)
I don't know if these tests are relevant, pre-2.6.31 incompatibility might be caused by some user-space change or other.
What else can I do ?

This bug is a show stopper for me, I really want this to be fix before the release !
I (once again) reinstalled with 10/08 daily-live with no results. I tried to remove pulseaudio for a test purpose, but it wanted to remove gnome entirely so I canceled.
I though about trying another distro for seeing if this bug is reproducible, but in fact I'm not sure this would be very helpful.
What do you think ?
If you have any idea or test to perform (even a very annoying one) which might help, I will do the necessary.

I did some more kernel testing with karmic/jaunty, so here is a summary of all my tests in this area:
Current jaunty's kernel:
Work great with jaunty, no sound at all on karmic → (so, pulseaudio issue ?)
2.6.30-9
used to work with karmic prior alpha 3 but currently it brings no sound at all.
2.6.31 series (I tested many of them with the same result)
No sound at all on Jaunty.
On Karmic, no sound on internal speakers of my laptop but, with headphones, I can hear the sound but it's low and distort.
2.6.32 (tested with rc3 from here: http://
The same as with 2.6.31 (nothing on Jaunty, something strange on Karmic)
All of this seem strange to me, and this time I really don't know what else I can do to help.
Is there a way to downgrade easily pulseaudio for testing ?
@Jon Neal: Do you have the same behaviour with headphones ?
Simone Tolotti (simontol) wrote : | #18 |
Confirmed also un Kubuntu karmic kernel 2.6.31-13. Kde don't use pulseaudio here so I think it is a kernel related issue.
Nicolas Delvaux (malizor) wrote : | #19 |
I also tried with kubuntu beta and, indeed, there is exactly the same bug.
So, we know now that it is a kernel issue, and it seems to have been introduced since 2.6.31 (according to my former tests).
What's next ?

Try this:
rm -r ~/.pulse*
Then run gnome-alsamixer to re-adjust the volume settings (more specifically, the Master and PCM settings). This fixed the problem for me. Then again, I have an SB Live 5.1 card.
g.marella (giuppi) wrote : | #54 |
@Joshua Solomon: worked for me too.
I've installed gnome-alsamixer -without removing old pulse conf files- and found out PCM channel was disabled, the Mute checkbox was selected.
Nicolas Delvaux (malizor) wrote : | #55 |
Effectively, some channels were off in gnome-alsa-mixer but, unfortunately, it didn't solve my problem.
I tried with many different levels combo and I figure out that the "Front" level has absolutely no effect, from 0% to 100% (but strangely mute is effectively mute !)
"Master", "Line" and "Speaker" seem to control the same level (logical, if there is no working "Front", isn't it ?)
Concerning "Beep", if I un-mute it, sound become even more cracking (on headphones, still nothing on speakers).
And for the two boxes "IEC958" and "IEC958 Default PCM" they do nothing (even if no one is selected).
So, the "Front" level might be the problem (or the symptom ?).
What's next ? I'm counting on you !

Same thing with a vanilla install.
So, no one has an idea or just a start of a theory to solve or to figure out this bug ?
We saw (in fact, I understood) that this is likely to be an alsa issue. Now, is this auto-detection or the driver itself which doesn't want to do his job ?

also, sound preferences shows just a dummy device, and alsamixer shows the sound chip to be "Realtek ALC268".
mute led is is illuminated orange (should be blue). this has never happened before.
basically it looks to me like the kernel module has been broken bringing all audio down with it...
hope somebody can help. i will now try booting using the old kernel module from jaunty to see if im right...
i will be glad to provide further info please just tell me what to post.
thanks to everyone who helps people like me and makes ubuntu the best OS there is (albeit temporarily having a problem).

the old kernel + modules didnt help.
dont know what has happen to the sound setup in ubuntu, but it doesnt wanty to play nicely with the driver and hardwiare. to expand on my previous post, the mute light is blue for most of the boot-up process (which is a total horror-show compared to the jaunty boot by the way) but then turns orange near the end. something is disabling the sound card!
all that dmesg has is:

ex-oficio (wilkinson-luke) wrote : | #84 |
the hack to "/etc/pulse/
to be accurate, i made the change, rebooted opened sound preferences and saw that the "dummy device" had been replaced by "internal audio analog device". however mute led was orange, but sotware reported the device to be unmuted. after cycling the mute checkbox on and off, the led was blue and behaviour was correct. this behaviour has continued after a reboot.
audio jack behaviour is correct as well.
this is obviously not an acceptable situation for the less tech savvy, and really shouldnt be acceptable to any of us because it means that something somewhere isnt doing what it should be.
it also probably means that when the issue is solved those of us that implement this hack will end up with incorrect "/etc/pulse/
i will still gladly provide any pertinent info asked for in pursuit of fixing this bug as it isnt really fixed.
cheers,

@ex-oficio That's a separate PulseAudio bug.

I don't know if this is the "right" way, but I was without sound and I fixed it like this:
- Edit /etc/pulse/
- Uncomment the line:
#load-module module-alsa-sink
- "killall pulseaudio" in a terminal and wait a bit until it respawns (you'll know it because the mixer icon in the panel appears again)
- Use alsamixer to unmute all the "unmuteable"; in my case, my headphones are connected to the "front" plug, so I unmuted the master control and the front control
It worked for me, I can't guarantee it works for everyone.

@retrinqueiro: it didn't work for me.
No progress since the release (with all updates, even from proposed).
I built alsa from sources and also from the custom realtek version (found on their website) but I always fall in the same issue.
Of course, I tried several options in /etc/modprobe.
If you have ANY GUESS or ANY IDEA for this bug, just post ! I installed karmic on an external hdd so I can experiment safely.
I will try with Lucid I soon as a live .iso will be available, but I still want to find a solution for Karmic.

Many of the Realtek changes just landed in Linus's 2.6.32 tree, so
your symptoms should be resolved in current 2.6.32-git. Alternately,
you can try a snapshot of alsa-driver stable:

I tried with the alsa-driver snapshot but it did not work better :(
I simply did ./configure, make, sudo make install-modules and after a reboot this bug is still alive.
(the same with the common sudo make install)
I tried it too on Jaunty and then their is no sound at all (not even an ugly one on headphones)
→ it comes back to normal (only on jaunty) when I reinstall every things that synaptic find with a "sound" search.
Am I doing something wrong with this ?

On karmic it was 1.0.21and the build date was not coherent (as I remember).
I will retry this with a newer snapshot (or it's perhaps better to wait for the coming-soon release of 2.6.32 rc7 ?)

Ok, so I retried with today's snapshot.
On Jaunty, I noticed that the problem is indeed the same as in Karmic : I hear the low and disrupted sound when I set the speaker channel (in alsamixer for example) closely to 100 (see comment #55).
cat /proc/asound/
On karmic, it's even more strange : after a reboot I hear the drum of gdm (only with headphones) but after login there is no sound at all.
For both Jaunty and Karmic, I did ./configure, make, make install-modules then reboot then test then make install then reboot and test.
Oh, one more thing, I tried to build alsa-driver 1.0.18rc3 or 1.0.19 on karmic, but it always failed with several " error: ‘struct proc_dir_entry’ has no member named ‘owner’ "...

I tried with 11/20 daily-live of Lucid and this bug is still there.
Once more, what can I do/try ?
Is there at least an upstream bug for this ?
I must admit that alsa's bugzilla seems odd to me.
Anyway I don't know how to explain this bug in an accurate way (which tests I already performed are relevant...)
Nicolas Delvaux (malizor) wrote : | #95 |
Hello there ?
As I said, I won't give up on this.
I repeat that this bug is still alive on Lucid and the fact that it doesn't seem to be any start of a movement that can bring us a fix is very disappointing (and especially because this is a regression).
So I re-ask some questions :
- Why pre-1.0.20 alsa-driver don't build on Karmic ? If I could build it, it should be possible to see if alsa-driver really own the key of this bug.
Google doesn't help here, all I found is to manually patch some files but then the build just fail later with the same error. And this again and again...
- Is it relevant to fill an upstream bug against alsa-driver ? If yes, which part of this report would help upstream ?
- What else can I do ?

i now have sound, but with odd symptoms regarding the little "mute" indicator light (which is also a touch sensitive button) on my keyboard. normally its orange when the sound is muted (or the sound is broken) and blue otherwise. now, it is orange when no sound is playing (when there are no applications listed as playing sound in the pulse preferences dialog), and blue when sounds are being played! the button functionality still works so its not so bad, but i keep seeing the orange light and thinking the sound has failed again!
what was wrong with the sound setup in intrepid? can somebody explain why we need pulseaudio? it has caused terrible sound issues with wine and dosbox for me.

Hi there !
I finally find the solution. (I only reboot one time. hope it will continue then).
I add this line "options snd-hda-intel model=will probe_mask=1" at the end of the file /etc/modprobe.
Then reboot and it's a success.
All of the honours must go to this page : http://

And, in fact, it looks like model=will is the wrong quirk; if you need
one at all, it should be model=acer.
So, please first try omitting the model quirk completely and using
only position_fix=1. Then try omitting the position_fix=1 quirk and
using only model=acer. Finally, use both quirks. You'll need to reboot
between each of the three tests.

Thank you Daniel, here are the results :
options snd-hda-intel probe_mask=1 → doesn't work
options snd-hda-intel model=acer probe_mask=1 → it works ! (wtf, I was absolutely sure that I have tested this before !)
But, this time, sound is TOO high : 5% on the gnome applet seems already quite high (equivalent to 60-70% on Jaunty)
options snd-hda-intel model=acer → same as above (I nearly awoke all my family when I tested without headphones !)
options snd-hda-intel model=will probe_mask=1 → it works, and it provide more reasonable sound (let's say 50% with this equal 10% with model=acer)
And, one more test :
options snd-hda-intel model=will → same as above, so probe_mask=1 is indeed useless.
That's all for now, thank you for your help !

After testing, both quirks work for microphone recording.
Notice that, with "will", I have two microphone entry in sound-preferences and that only "microphone 1" works. Whereas there is only one entry with "acer" (and it works).
In a nutshell, it seems that acer is indeed the right setting but "will" is simply more usable in this case.

I am on a fresh install so there were no linux-backports
So, with the latest snapshot, there is no difference :
- Bug without quirck
- Work as expected with model=will (both microphone, speakers and headphones
- Same with model=acer, but sound is too high (after some extra tests, I may say that it is 2x more on headphones and perhaps even more on speakers. Considering that sound become very ugly around 40%, thanks too integrated speakers, it's more useful and flexible to use model=will)

I tried the option model=acer instead of model=will. I don't find that the sound is too high. (I didn't try eadphones).
The sound is very ugly, but by changing the subwoofer's volume (with alsamixer command) which is too high, the sound becomes good.
with model=will, I did not have the opportunity to change the subwoofer's volume. And the sound seems the same after change. So, according to me model=acer is a better choice.
(I'm pretty sure that earlier I tried model=acer and get no sound.)
jezeos (jeremy-bez) wrote : | #110 |
Ok, so I retried with model=acer.
In fact the volume control in the top board, controls the subwoofer's volume. So it's necessary to use the alsamixer to change the volume. Not pratical, so !
