[System Product Name, Realtek ALC887, Green Line Out, Rear] No sound at all

[Geoff]

Binary package hint: pulseaudio

When I typed ubuntu-bug audio, I heard the first set of sounds but not the second. My speakers make a small 'clunk' noise when first booting but then I have no sound.

Never mind! I set my audio preferences to 'analog' and now have sound! (That hadn't worked before though!)
