Package: alsa-utils Version: 1.0.19-2 Severity: normal Some time during the last 3 days, sound stopped working on my box. I can't see the snd_* modules loaded. I'm sure if I'll load them manually, they'll start working. But earlier they were automatically loaded. So what really got changed in the last 3 days.
I look at the NEWS for this package and this is what it says: alsaconf was upstream's way to detect sound cards and generate system-wide ALSA configurations. However, this should have been unnecessary for a very long time, with the introduction of udev support and its automatic hardware detection. If this isn't the case for you, it's a bug which should be filed and fixed properly. I see that you recommend filing a bug report, thus this bug report. I'm not sure what exactly caused it. But I'm sure this erratic behavior is because of something else. :-) Because even the wireless drivers don't load any more. I already have udev from unstable at version 0.140-2. What else do you think I should check ?
