Possible fix? and Issue. Something Daniel said struck me in an earlier post that everything was showing MUTED. In the sound preference GUI nothing was muted so this surprised me but I let it go... Every time I called up the Sound Preference whether from the top right ICON of from the System> Preferences> Sound, all devices and entries did not show that anything was muted.
Searching around someone suggested installing the ALSA-Mixer to see what things looked like from that prospective. I installed the the gnome- alsamixer 0.9.7~cvs.2006091. I found the entry under Applications> Sound and Video> GNOME ALSA Mixer. When I ran it - under each and every entry for my Realtek ALC1200, all channels from Master, PCM, Front, Fromt-Middle all the way across showed MUTE was ON. I un-muted from this GUI and my sound is back. For what its worth I don't know if after I re-boot if these settings will stick. But it appears the MUTE as shown in the new Sound Preference in no way reflects the MUTEing in the real world. That and upon re-boots and/or other activity the MUTE is being set to ON inadvertently. Because I'll have sound call up Sound Preference and then I'll loose sound again. I'm considering re-booting to see if these setting will stay. Then again, after what I just went through I may consider a movie while my sound is still working. Then later I may consider un-installing the backport I installed earlier. Does anyone know if the alsa-backport I installed earlier can be un-installed with no I'll effects? It didn't solve the issue and if all I need is a different GUI Mixer to turn everything on I don't want this backport if I don't need it. -[d]- -- Lost Sound after upgrade to 9.10 did work right after https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/474611 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
