I have idea at this point. I am still reading up on it, and trying to find someone who has worked with parallel issues in the past. What has changed from 12.04 to 12.10? Can we track something down that way?

Lubuntu Quantal daily build October 1. Fresh install When initially lauched alsamixer in terminal it showed as "file or directory does not exist". I reinstalled asla-utils package and ran "rm /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.local.conf", which fixed the problem in 12.04. This time it did not; alsamixer shows in terminal, but with the message "this sound device does not have any controls", no sound in system, or loudspeaker icon in taskbar. Is this a bug or faulty config?
