For me pressing F6 shows ------Sound Card---------- - default 0 HDA Nvidia enter device name -------------------------- and changing the volume for default changes the volume for HDA Nvidia and vice versa. In the top left corner of ALSA Mixer when selecting HDA Nvidia, I see that I have a Cirrus Logic CS4206 chip. When I enter `dmesg` I see snd_hda_codec_cirrus. I suppose your snd_ chip does not get loaded. If so, why would that be? I don’t know. Did the other distro use Linux-libre as its kernel? I see the prefix snd_ occurring in https://www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/selibre/linux-libre/ and https://www.fsfla.org/svn/fsfla/software/linux-libre/scripts/deblob-check Regards, Florian
