regarding: "In your case, make sure nothing is accessing the sound card" this even happens when all programs are closed. regarding: "In the first place, how come you don't have pulseaudio running? Did you remove it?" No, I didn't remove it (fresh 8.10 install from DVD), but I found out why it wasn't running (as I restarted my system): sudo alsa force-reload also kills the pulseaudio process on my computer. But however, killall pulseaudio doesn't restore my sound (as reported in the other bug), only sudo alsa force-reload does. (to make it totally clear what I did: restart my system ps -A | grep pulseaudio (response: 5440 ? 00:00:00 pulseaudio) suspend resume try to play a sound using different methods (response: I heard nothing, aplay question.wav answered without error: Wiedergabe Wave 'question.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Samplingrate: 44100 Hz, Mono killall pulseaudio (to check whether that restores sound) ps -A | grep pulseaudio (response: none, so it was actually killed) try to play a sound using different methods (response: I heard nothing again) sudo alsa force-reload (response: long standard output, no errors...) try to play a sound (response: works again) (restart pulseaudio to test whether alsa force-relaod kills it:) pulseaudio & (response: W: ltdl-bind-now.c: Failed to find original dlopen loader.
