I am having trouble getting any sound output on an Acer Revo R3600.
I first tried after upgrading an Ubuntu Server installation to 12.10,
that produced nothing.
I have now done a completely fresh install of Lubuntu core and that is
just as silent.
Everything *appears* to work, e.g. if I run alsamixer on the command
line I get all the expected bits and can turn the gain up on 'master',
'phones' and 'speaker' but still I get nothing out.
If I run the default rhythmbox it thinks everything is OK and 'plays'
but no sound comes from the speakers (I'm using the headphone output
driving an amplifier). Jiggling the connections produces a crackle from
the speakers so they are connected and live.
Can anyone suggest what might be wrong?
Why are you using Ubuntu Server and Lubuntu core, and not the normal
Lubuntu Desktop installation?
Because this is to be a server system running headless, among other
things I'm aiming to run mpd on it.
I only tried Lubuntu Core because I wondered if my problem was some GUI
component that was necessary to make sound work (it shouldn't be so but
you never know). If/when I get it working I will probably remove the
GUI or least stop it running.
I see you're using the headphone output. Does it also have a regular
speaker output (usually green) on the back of the machine that you can try?
