I'm experiencing what appears to be the same issue. I have an Acer aspire. Fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04 lts (though same symptoms on 16.10 & 17.04). I also experience this from the liveUSB installer. Due too having a busted screen, I have the hdmi connected to a tv, which reports the wrong native resolution. Prior to resizing my screen resolution, hdmi audio appears to work fine. I can use xrandr to add the correct resolution, but as soon as I change the hdmi output mode, I loose hdmi audio. Laptop speaker audio appears to work fine; no headphones available to test headphone jack. I've tried the following suggestions without any success: - pulseaudio -k - Changing audio output frequency - dkms suggested above - commenting out load-module module-switch-on-port-available in /etc/pulse/default.pa (suggestion from retropie faq) If any additional details will help, please let me know. -- 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/1606078 Title: No sound with Ubuntu 16.04 Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04.1 on an LG S1 Express Dual laptop there was no sound from the speakers unless external speakers where hooked to the headphones socket.
