Using slint on the same computer to find the inaccessible unrecognized
sound card:
$ cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [HDMI ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel HDMI
HDA Intel HDMI at 0xc1320000 irq 58
1 [PCH ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel PCH
HDA Intel PCH at 0xc1324000 irq 50
2 [Camera ]: USB-Audio - USB Camera
USB Camera USB Camera at usb-0000:00:1d.0-1.6, high
speed
The second one (HDA Intel PCH ) is the one I want.
Any suggestions?
