OK Eureka: we have sound on headphones and laptop's internal speakers!!! Thank you Raymond for all the help you gave. As local user, launch hdajackretask: $ hdajackretask
* Select "show unconnected pins" * Pin 0x0f override to (dropdown menu) --> Internal Speaker * Pin 0x10 override to (dropdown menu) --> Internal Speaker (LFE) * Pin 0x15 override to (dropdown menu) --> Headphone Still received message: "tee: /sys/class/sound/hwC0D0/reconfig: Device or resource busy" but the above seemed to have worked. To make this permanent click button: "Install boot override" [P.S. was googling the "tee: /sys/class/sound/hwC0D0/reconfig: Device or resource busy" message and got inpiration from: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/17sov5/howto_beats_audio_hp_laptop_speakers_on/ - although obviously the link deals with a different model ] Thank you very much again. RE microphone: "and you need to find the mic and internal mic from 0x12, 0x13, 0x14 and 0x16" Have set pin 0x12 as Microphone and pin 0x13 as Internal Mic. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1562396 Title: No sound - ALC260 snd-hda-intel on Vaio VGN-A497XP on MATE 16.4 Final Beta To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1562396/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
