Comment 120 for bug 318942

I just ran the automatic updates and it hosed the sound again. I tried repeating the steps used the first time and I have had no such luck yet. Is there anyone from the sound team working this? Is there any way that we can go back through all of these fixes and come up with a form of macro that we could run in order to fix the speakers? I appologize, but I am a novice at ubuntu, and I really don't want to ever go back to windows... ever. But I am forced with the uphill battle of somehow managing to learn another operating sys. The best I have been able to do so far is copy and paste commands from some of these fixes and get the speakers working.. But that was before the updates that got released sometime around june 25 2009.. If someone that is more fluent at ubuntu (than me) could release another walk-through that I could just copy and paste into the terminal program, It would be much appreciated.

Also Thank you all for all of the hard work that you have put into addressing this bug and the others that you are involved in, that is the only reason that Ubuntu/open source freeware is free. I salute you.

PS if there are more gripes, please open a seperate string for blamestorming/lynching volunteers that are trying to make things better. I don't think that any of them deserve to be treated this way after working so hard for so long for the very users like myself and other novices new to Ubuntu. Don't bite the hand that feeds you :)

Thanx
