Alright. Don't know If I had the same problem you guys are experiencing here so let me explain what issues I had...
I updated to kubuntu karmic beta yesterday using the internet. After installation completed successfully I did also have no sound at all. My mixer also is SigmaTel STAC9271D [my mainboard is a intel dp35dp]. So i tried to install linux-backports-modules-alsa-2.6.31-14-generic . Didn't work here either. Then it came to my mind! The menu.lst wasnt updated to start with the new 2.6.31.14 kernel. I was still using the old jaunty kernel after installation. So I altered the menu.lst to start the os with the new kernel and there we go... sound was back [only had to unmute the speaker slider]. Please don't stone me if this doesn't has to do anything with the bug filed here though. -- [Regression] No sound with Karmic on HP HDX 9300 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/407790 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
