Hi,
I have a Lenovo P520 workstation with an internal speaker on which I'd like
to play sound.
OS installed is RHEL 7U6 with alsa 1.1.6
the internal speaker is enabled in BIOS; however I don't have any sound
output on it.
The only way to have sound is to plug an external speaker.
If I load the module snd-pcsp, there is an additional card that appears
that I can use to play sound on the internal speaker, although the sound
quality is very poor (crackling).
I don't really know where to dig concerning this issue; whether it's a bug
with the kernel module or alsa; I'd appreciate some guidance.
The audio chipset (not using the Nvidia output):
# lspci -v | grep -i audio
00:1f.3 Audio device: Intel Corporation 200 Series PCH HD Audio
65:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GP107GL High Definition Audio
Controller (rev a1)
Below the output of aplay -l and aplay -L:
# aplay -l
