 Posted: Wed Nov 26, 2008 3:44 am Post subject: alsa sound configuration does not work |
 |
|
Hey guys... For some reason I cannot get sound to work on my computer.
I have a macbook with intel 82801H HD Audio controller
I compiled my kernel with the appropriate settings selected (as the gentoo ALSA guide states)
and I still have no sound.
I tried running alsaconf ( the correct sound card appeared) and still no sound.
One interesting thing is that where I connect my headphone jack to the computer, there is a red light turned on. When i boot from
my mac partition that does not happen.
Another interesting fact is that when i pop up alsamixer, I cannot mute "PCM", that is, there is no option to mute or unmute. WHile testing
I did make sure everything was unmuted. And in addition, there is no "Master" bar on the display.
Thanks in advance |

A couple things to check would be your OSS configuration in your kernel (make sure it's off), and your the mixer for whichever desktop environment you're using. For instance, in Kmix there are switches that usually have to be enabled or disabled for your sound to work. If I remember correctly, alsamixer doesn't have an option to mute PCM at all.
Please post the output of the following commands:
| Code: |
$ lspci |grep -i audio
$ lsmod |grep hda_intel
$ cat /proc/asound/cards
$ cat /proc/asound/Intel/codec#0

what's your kernel/alsa version? I have the same card, still no luck in generating sound out of it, I've heard that you need at least alsa version 1.0.17/kernel 2.6.27

| I have had this problem a couple of times. Most recently the thing that fixed it was actually disabling ALSA in the kernel and just emergeing the ALSA driver. Also, you might have to recompile anything that was added after ALSA was added with --newuse. if added to your USE flags. It seemed that the newer kernel was screwy with ALSA. |

| I believe you need to add the option "model=mbp3" to the snd-hda-intel module. Hope that helps! |

Either this or "model=macpro" - see /usr/src/linux/Documentation/sound/alsa/ALSA-Configuration.txt for more details ...
