I tried installing Ubuntu 13.10 again and still wasn't able to get any sound at all as soon as I installed the rest of ubuntu-desktop. I decided to go back to Ubuntu 13.04 with a fresh install, but although I can get sound with my Recon3D here 100% of the time, I cannot get the master volume controls to work. You can raise and lower them in alsamixer but they simply won't have any effect. Similarly, you can enable/disable some features in alsamixer and they won't have any effect, even though before they worked fine. However, if I switch to HDMI audio, the master control works, so the problem is with how alsa ignores various options in my Recon3D ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 Package: alsa-base 1.0.25+dfsg-0ubuntu4 Uname: Linux 3.12.0-031200rc5-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: fglrx ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu8.3 Architecture: amd64 Date: Tue Oct 22 01:13:56 2013 MarkForUpload: True PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: alsa-driver UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) dmi.bios.date: 10/16/2012 dmi.bios.vendor: American Megatrends Inc. dmi.bios.version: 1604 dmi.board.asset.tag: To be filled by O.E.M. dmi.board.name: SABERTOOTH 990FX dmi.board.vendor: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. dmi.board.version: Rev 1.xx dmi.chassis.asset.tag: To Be Filled By O.E.M. dmi.chassis.type: 3 dmi.chassis.vendor: To Be Filled By O.E.M. dmi.chassis.version: To Be Filled By O.E.M. dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvr1604:bd10/16/2012:svnTobefilledbyO.E.M.:pnTobefilledbyO.E.M.:pvrTobefilledbyO.E.M.:rvnASUSTeKCOMPUTERINC.:rnSABERTOOTH990FX:rvrRev1.xx:cvnToBeFilledByO.E.M.:ct3:cvrToBeFilledByO.E.M.: dmi.product.name: To be filled by O.E.M. dmi.product.version: To be filled by O.E.M. dmi.sys.vendor: To be filled by O.E.M.
