it has turned out that the problem persists even with the older versions of linux-firmware (1.157.11 and 1.157.10) - i tried with them today
what i did was: sudo dpkg -i linux-firmware_1.157.11_all.deb sudo reboot and nothing changed then: sudo apt-get remove linux-firmware sudo apt-get install linux-generic linux-image-generic linux-generic-hwe-16.04 linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04 sudo dpkg -i linux-firmware_1.157.11_all.deb sudo reboot and the problem persisted then: sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-generic linux-image-generic linux-generic-hwe-16.04 linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04 sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-generic linux-image-generic linux-generic-hwe-16.04 linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04 linux-firmware sudo reboot and there was no change again same with 1.157.10 probably the problem comes from another package, but i remember very well how there had been sound in the old games and in all browsers before those september updates, and the sound menu bar volume control slider worked what else could it be?! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1716009 Title: problem with the sound since the latest update To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1716009/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
