I have been working on this issue for several days now and still cannot get my sound card to work. Basically, I have a Creative Sound Blaster Recon3D sound card installed in a PCI slot and I am unable to play any sound through it. Note that I have the on board sound disabled in the BIOS. Also, it is my understanding that this sound card is supported as of kernel 3.5.
Update manager updated a few libs recently (can't remember which ones, but it was definitely not linux headers). Then, after reboot the sound stopped working. The song in rhythmbox would go on playing visually and there is no indication in Sound Preferences that the hardware is not working properly. Yet no sound is coming out of speakers.
I have a Xonar DG sound card working great in Ubuntu 12.10. It has a built in headphone amp and it sounds amazing.
However the microphone does not work.
I have poked around online and it seems many users have this issue. Even the Alsa page lists this card as 'working', but 'microphone not working'.
My Gigabyte motherboard has onboard sound and a mic input.
my machine hs started to have fading sound. it will play, for a couple of hours, and then it starts getting strange. when I test the sound it is clear and good (sound settings). sometimes, if I crank up the volume it cures itself. I have checked the limes and they seem fine. I have swapped out the speakers and it makes no difference.
I have 2 sound cards : one is on board and other is Creative sound blaster.
I want to play sounds just on Crative.
The problem is when I reboot the PC the sound is change,sometime the default sound card is Creative sometime is the onboard card.
I want my default sound card to be only Creative.
How to do that?
Thank you
When I first installed Fedora on my laptop, the sound worked fine. Recently, it's stopped working.
If I open up the sound settings, it doesn't list any sound cards/output devices.
Any ideas what could be causing this? I'm using a thinkpad edge 15.
I reformatted my hard drive and installed Mandriva 2011.
It works fine. I can go to the Internet
The problem is no sound.
I want to listen to songs from YouTube. Sound doesn't come.
I see a man is singing on the screen. No sound.
I had no problem with my old Mandriva. Sound and everything worked fine.
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Ok sound is working but its horrible, sounds like it overdrives the speakers or sound card its bad can't listen to any thing. Is anyone else having this problem or is just me?
Using the 127 kernel most every thing else works accept the sound.
I'm trying to solve a problem with sound and USB ports in Fedora 17.
After many months of trouble free operation the sound and front panel USB ports have stopped working on my Fedora 17 desktop system.
Sound does not work in any application (Mplayer, Kaffine, Firefox, etc).
Simple sound configuration, analog audio out to two speakers.
