There were a few lines from the Alsa 1.0.22 change log that sounded like they might resolve some or all of the issues I was seeing with my laptop.
Change log: http://www.alsa- project.org/main/index.php/Changes_v1.0.21_v1.0.22 In particular: ALSA: hda - Unmute docking line-out as default with AD1984A codec ALSA: hda - Add missing GPIO initialization for AD1984A laptop model ALSA: hda - Add support of docking auto-mute/mic for AD1984A laptop model ALSA: hda - Fix LED GPIO setup for HP laptops with IDT codecs ALSA: hda - Fix mute-LED sync on HP laptops with IDT92HD83xxx codecs ALSA: hda - Enable GPIO control for mute LED on HP systems I'm not completely sure which of the last three might apply to our specific laptop, but chances are this laptop's sound will work better in 2.6.33 (b/c that kernel will have this version of Alsa). -- alsa power-saving ambarass my laptop's mute led https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/456769 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
