http://ubuntuforums.org – Dear All, Recently i bought DELL inspiron 14 and made it as dual boot with Windows Vista and Ubuntu 9.04 and im facing a strange issue. I can hear sound Vista in headphone as well as speakers. But in case of ubuntu i can hear sound in headphone only and no speaker sound and the strange thing is that when i first boot windows and then boot ubuntu both the mic and speakers will work properly . But when i first boot ubuntu i can hear sound from the headphone only . I followed some sound trouble shooting steps but no effect at all.Can anyone have any solution for this. Thanks, Bipin (Hardware)

Hello everyone :)

I have sound issues with my hp dv6 Ubuntu12.04 laptop. I tested it with : Speakers, bose oe2 headphone, apple headphone, cheap headphone from airlines company.

The first issue is that when i play a song on speaker (beats audio) the volume is really much lower than on windows.

Hi, This post is gonna get the Ubuntu know-alls bamboozled, I'm sure. I have had recurrent sound problems with my Dell Inspiron 1440 with Dual boot of Windows Vista and Ubuntu Jaunty.

I have a very odd problem that I am assuming has something to do with how 9.10 is accessing and controlling my sound card.

I have a dual boot system between XP serv pack 2 and 9.10 Karmic.

*IF* I have muted the speaker when operating on the XP side, when I boot Ubuntu, I ONLY have sound coming from my headphone jack.

[ubuntu] sound disppeared 3 years 8 weeks ago

Hi,

I have a laptop with onboard speakers and a headphone jack. If you use the headphone jack the onboard speakers stop.

This is good because my onboard speakers are broken so i plug my headphones into the headphone jack and i still have sound :D

Hi i have just install Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 32bit on my computer but i am having a bit of problem with sound. The sound is coming through my internal laptop speakers but when i connect my 2.1 speakers or headphone to 3.5mm jack nothing can be hear on my 2.1 speakers.

Hi, I'm using a Dell E6500 with a PR02X port replicator and a 2.1 external speakers.

With the laptop docked, sound comes from both the external and internal speakers.

I bought an Asus Xonar U1 external soundcard when I was running Windows Vista.

I installed UBuntu a couple of months ago and sound "works" - meaning that I hear music when I'm supposed to hear it.

However, the sound is disappointingly thin compared to what I was getting with Vista.

Restricting sound control 50 weeks 3 days ago

I need to restrict users so that they cannot output sound from built-in speakers. They should plug their headphones to hear any sound. They should be able to control headphone volume level, but not built-in speakers.

I need a command-line solution for automation purposes.

Is this possible (on Ubuntu 12.04)?

ubuntu 11.10 has no sound 1 year 9 weeks ago

I just installed ubuntu. things seems great but I have no sound. When I go to the settings menu I chose from various setup. I found one that work which had 4 speakers a subwofer and a front speaker. When I test it the sound works fine. However, when I try playing an *.mp3 file or try to watch a video on you tube I get no sound at all.
