Public bug reported: I'm a new Linux user. I installed Ubuntu 6.1 some weeks ago, but noticed that on boot-up the sound would sometimes fail to work. A reboot (or several reboots) usually fixed the problem. Two days ago, the sound failed completely. No amount of rebooting restores it. I've worked through the suggested fixes described at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449&highlight=reinstalling+alsa, and although my sound card is detected (see below) and I have removed and reinstalled the ALSA drivers: linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa- utils, I still get no sound. Nothing is muted in either the ALSA control panel or the regular volume control panel.
The only change on the system prior to the complete sound failure was the latest Ubuntu update. Unfortunately, I can't recall what was contained in it, but the sound went after this installation.
