Just a follow up to this for anyone with the same issue.  I ended up installing alsa, alsa-oss, and pulseaudio-alsa, and then configuring them with an Alsa Mixer (in this case xfce4-mixer, but there are others) and Pulseaudio Volume Control (pavucontrol).  In Pulseaudio Volume Control, I disabled 'HD-Audio Generic', as it is for the HDMI output of my graphics card, and set &#03

Most everything works great on my samsung chronos 7 with f17 including led brightness, keyboard brightness, wifi, etc.

No audio with X Server 35 weeks 1 day ago

I don't think X Server itself has anything to do with your audio.Sometimes your DE/WM might do some configuring of your audio on its' own.Which alsa/pulseaudio/OSS are you using?Could be the audio hardware doesn't like the sound architecture you're using.I have audio hardware that went back and forth between alsa and OSS, alsa being the better choice.

I have exactly the same problem with my Acer Aspire 3820.

I'm using XFCE4 and had no problem running ALSA.I read that OSS4 can give me better sound than ALSA so I tried to install it. I followed the steps of https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Open_Sound_System and with `osstest` I can hear the really well audio quality but sometimes it adds extra noise.

no inbuild micro on xps 1530 3 years 24 weeks ago

Hi,

i've just installed opensuse 11.2 (Gnome) on my Dell xps1530 and everything works well, i'm very happy BUT inbuild microphone doesn't want to work! It's the only bug,not so bad ;-)) but i need it...

Here's my infos: alsa-info.sh

Hello,I'm having a odd issue.... I just installed PulseAudio on my machine (Avoided it for so long, still prefer just plain ALSA) and I'm using a ALSA backend. I installed it for the need to simultaneously output my system audio to my headphones and my speakers at the same time. Everything seems to be all right except for when I play Minecraft or WoW...

I am going to link to this thread from the alsa wiki.Because with sound not working, what ppl do is aplay -D [their hdmi device] and no error message is displayed but no sound. Then they go to the wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ad … s_Not_Work and dont find help.Thx akb825 !gt
