Fix invalid connections in VT1802 codec and the pin fixup of the subwoofer 0x33 and 0x24 can be replaced by early patching http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound.git;a=blob_plain;f=Documentation/sound/alsa /HD-Audio.txt;h=7813c06a5c71d70a353862a6fec6713d3d73da3b;hb=HEAD -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to alsa-driver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1081263 Title: [W250ENQ / W270ENQ, VIA VT1802, Speaker, Internal] Internal sub-woofer does not work Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I recently bought a GenesisIV from pcspecialist.co.uk. It is a re- badged Clevo W250ENQ. The sub-woofer functions fine in Windows (which I have since removed), but doesn't work in Ubuntu. speaker-test produces pink noise for the left and right channel, but nothing for LFE (the sub-woofer). There's a greyed-out sub-woofer volume slider in the pulseaudio widget (see attachment), but I think this might be a red herring. I've tried adjusting/unmuting all the channels in alsamixer, but doesn't seem to do anything. The module I'm using is snd-hda-intel and the codec is VIA VT1802.
