Envy 17-3070NR Linux Audio Driver

Hi,  What audio chipset is being used in the Envy 17-3070NR?  Is there a Linux driver for the audio hardware device(s)?  I am able to boot Ubuntu and several other recent linux distro's but none of them seem to have an integral audio driver that works with the audio chipset in this laptop.  So what device is it and/or where might I find a linux driver?

FWIW I just got my envy 17t-3000 audio to work.
It turns out I have 3 audio devices (hdmi, analog-internal, and a usb)  Things get wonky with all 3 loaded and as I'm not using the wirelss audio device I've put snd_usb_audio into my /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf file and Now I can get the internal speakers to work. 
Note: I still had to fiddle with the audio manager to get it working.  but its working ok now. (ubuntu 11.04 + linux 3.2.3 vanilla kernel)

  • Envy 14-3017NR no Audio Driver After Recovery Install

    Hello,
    I'm looking for a help. I have performed a clean install of Windows 7 trough booting into HP Recovery Manager (F11 thing). It installed the OS and all other drivers seems to be OK except there is no driver for the audio at all (none of the built in speaker or jack-output will actually work). 
    I've been trying to install the audio driver from HP Support & Drivers page, from the HP recovery manager software. I have also tried to install multiple times the Intel chipset driver and then attempting the audio driver installation.. No success.
    Moreover, I cannot seem to find the Beat's audio interface that was installed initially after unboxing the machine. The beats and trackpad-locking lights are also not functional on the laptop body itself... Am I missing something or what? Your response would be much appreciated! Thank you.
    I'm attaching an image of the error I'm getting when installing the driver trough HP Recovery Manager software. 

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp57001-57500/sp5719​5.exe
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then perform a hard reset for your Model as detailed in the document Here.
    Next, tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
    Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete.  Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.

  • HP ENVY TS 15 Notebook PC: Problems installing audio driver (High Definition Audio device)

    Hello all,
    My product is the HP ENVY TS 15 Notebook PC.
    Product number: E3B65PA#AR6
    OS: Windows 8.1 64-bit
    A few days ago, I  upgraded my windows from windows 8 to windows 8.1 and found that no sound coming from the HDTV when connecting my HDMI cable however video is perfectly fine. I was completely baffled because the audio was working perfectly fine before upgrading to Windows 8.1. I have tried several solutions posted on other forums, such as installing other drivers, and uninstalling the IDT High Definition Audio Driver and then scanning for a hardware change. I have checked the HDMI cable and it is working fine with other laptop.
    Device manager is showing 2 device :
      High Definition audio device ( Showing yellow traingle)
      IDT High Definition Audio CODEC
    When I am opening the properties of High Definition audio device it is showing :
    This device cannot start (code 10)
    {Operation Failed}
    The requested operation was unsuccessful.
    If anyone knows how to fix the problem, please help me
    thanks in advance

    Hi:
    The IDT audio driver (notebook speakers) appears to be working fine.
    The problem is probably with the Intel graphics driver which  controls the HDMI audio.
    My recommendation would be to install the latest Intel graphics driver from the link below and see if that fixes the problem.

    A few days ago, I opened my laptop to find that there was no sound coming from the speakers at all.

I have tried several solutions posted on other forums, such as installing other drivers, and uninstalling the IDT High Definition Audio Driver and then scanning for a hardware change.

    Hello skyeisthelimit. I understand there is no sound produced by the notebook. Based on the description, I believe that the issue is software-based. However, I'm not going to eliminate faulty hardware from my mind. You have attempted some troubleshooting, which is great. I am going to provide some troubleshooting as well (certain steps you already completed). Please follow all troubleshooting in the order I suggest:
    First, there is Microsoft Wizard Tutorial that troubleshoots sound issues in Windows 8.1. Please follow the wizard until it is finished. You can locate this wizard here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-CA/windows/no-sound-help#no-sound=windows-8&v1h=win8tab1&v2h=win7tab...
    Second, follow all of the troubleshooting, suggest in this HP document: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c03257712
    Eventually, you will be asked to reinstall updated drivers. Please install this one: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-124012-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en...
    Assuming the issue is not resolved, the next step is to refresh Windows 8. This will force the computer to return to Windows 8. It will also clean up the computer, to a certain extent (it is not as powerful as a recovery). For more information on how to refresh Windows, please reference this Microsoft document: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-CA/windows-8/restore-refresh-reset-pc
    If refreshing the operating system does not resolve the issue, reinstall the operating system is the next step. Ensure you backup all of your data beforehand.
    For information on how to effectively backup your computer, please reference this document: http://h10010.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&docname=c03270359
    For information on how to perform a system recovery, please reference this document: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c03489643
    Please respond with the results of your troubleshooting. I'm only here to help!

  • No audio from HDMI output because High Definition Audio Driver cannot start (Envy 17 Quad)

    Ever since I first bought this laptop two months ago, the audio from the HDMI output has always been inconsistent. I remember it working a couple times, but there were more times when my audio driver didn't recognize that an HDMI cable was plugged in. Yes, I tried all the obvious: shutting down computer, checking disabled devices in Playback Devices, reinstalling drivers, etc. Now, when I plug an HDMI cable in, the video comes out fine but the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC does not recognize HDMI/my TV. The High Definition Audio Driver says it cannot start, but I could not reinstall nor find a download from HP's website. How can I get audio through HDMI to my TV??

  • Latest SoundMax HD Audio Driver is Very Static

    I had a botched install of Windows and redid everything with all the latest drivers from the website.  However, the newest audio driver has a very pop or crackle that occurs when playing music from any program or source including youtube, audacity, winamp, media player (both audio files and video files).  Is there any way to correct this?  I've had a lot of trouble with the audio driver specifically for a very long time and was hoping to get some guidance on this before I attempt to uninstall and switch back to the original audio driver.  And just to add, this problem seems to happen only when docked to my advanced mini dock.  When I use the built in speakers or headset, there's no static.... so I'm not quite sure what is going on here...

  • Windows 8.1 IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver

    I was cleaning up my programs and accidently uninstalled  IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver. This caused my Beats audio to be uninstalled as well.  Is there a way i can get it back? I have tried installing  IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver from Hp links but it keeps saying "The hardware detected is not supported by this IDT software package. The install will be aborted." Please help.

    Hi,
    Version 6491 is newer than 6486.
    You should have the Beats audio applet in control Panel. The driver includes the Beats audio software. You should have full functionality. Reboot your system and check Control Panel.
    My system is a fairly new HP Envy 810-150se. The latest IDT audio codec for my system is 6486.
    Where did you obtain Beats version 6491?

  • Audio crashing - IDT HD audio driver problem?

    Audio crashes when in use (basically just goes silent), even after re-install of driver (IDT HD Audio Driver). Upon reboot of the PC, audio will work temporarily, and then crash very quickly if there are multiple Chrome tabs with audio, and has also crashed using just a single media player (Spotify). I have not received any error messages.  When this happens, I am also unable to change the volume level using both point-and-click and hotkeys.  I'm running an HP Envy notebook with Windows 8.1 64 bit

  • MSI P4M900M2-L ~Realtek High Definition Audio Driver Issue Resolved In XP!

    Realtek High Definition Audio Driver Issue Resolved!  MSI P4M900M2-L Intel Dual Core VIA P4M900 Chipset 8 CH Azalia Audio.
    There is an issue w/ the Realtek High Definition Audio Driver for the MSI P4M900M2-L Intel Based Dual Core Via P4M900 Chipset based Motherboard w/ MS XP Home Premium Installed (Vista driver installs fine as I have built 4 of these in the last week, but the XP Audio driver doesn't).
    I could not get either Audio driver from the CD driver disk nor the MSI site to install w/ Win XP Home installed. Live Update for that Motherboard does not contain the Audio Driver either.
    After 3 days and multiple attempts to use MSI's very wanting (in my opinion), Technical Support forms and call-in line, I hunted, and hunted and found the driver(s) on CNET. They not only work great but as designed. I had almost given up and I actually installed an add-in sound card....But this is a machine for a customer. Then I searched again and found a real solution.
    Realtek High Definition Audio Drivers are located on CNET.com's download page:
    Win2K,XP,2003,XP Pro & XP64bit=
    http://www.download.com/Realtek-High-Definition-Audio-Codec-Windows-2000-XP-2003-XP-Professional-x64-Edition-/3000-2120_4-10788584.html?tag=dl.2

    Good luck to everyone, this will save you RMA'ing those boards over a stupid Audio driver issue, as they are great w/ the Intel Dual Core 775 CPU's from 2.0~3.0Ghz. Can't really tell the difference between the 2 CPU's w/ the Dual Core Program running (a utility supplied on the driver disk or on the Driver site!) I have built both..2 of each.

  • HP Envy TouchSmart Ultrabook 4 Audio Failure

    My computer won't play sounds at all (videos online, downloaded music, games on my computer, everything). 
    This doesn't happen all the time. I'm not sure but I think it usually happens when I use my computer for a long time (1-2 hours). It starts working again when I restart my computer but it stops working later and I have to restart my computer again. 
    I was wondering if there was a solution and if there's a reason why my audio isn't working.
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    Open windows Control Panel, open Windows Update, select 'View update history' in the left hand pane and then select 'Installed updates' link in the following window.
    Locate update KB2962407, right click it and select Uninstall.  When done, restart the notebook, open windows Control Panel, open Windows Update and select 'Check for updates'.  You'll see the update you just uninstalled being offered again - right click and select 'Hide Update'.
    After this you may or may not need to delete and reload the Audio driver - if you do, the procedure for using recovery manager to reinstall Software and Drivers is detailed in the document on the link below.
    Recovery Manager - Windows 8.

    Hi, John:
    See if this audio driver works.

    You may need to install the quick launch software for the other issue.

  • G510 audio driver installati​on problem on Windows 8.1

    I've just received my brand new Lenovo G510 and installed Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit onto it.
    Most of the drivers from the attached CD installed without any problems (though I was quite surprised that no newer versions were available on the Support wrbpage) but I can't install audio driver.
    Apparently this series is equipped in either Conexant or Realtek audio chips and the provided setup application is desigend to detect the correct chip and run the appropriate driver installation program.
    The problem is that setup is not working for me. All I receive is the notification "This utility can not be used on this machine". Since there are no "orphan" audio devices in the Device Manager, I can't really tell which audio chipset is installed in my machine. I don't want to install both dirvers as it may just cause confilcts.
    How can I say which audio chipset is installed and install the correct driver?
    Solved!

    hi mikolajek,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
    Under Device manager
      You should look for your Audio
    Normally it stays under Sound and gaming controller,
       And if no driver is installed in shows as High Definition Audio
    Right click on it and select Properties
         Go to the Details TAB
    change the Value to Hardware ID then check the details
    ex. PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_4727&SUBSYS_051014E4&REV_01 
    Get the 4 digit after VEN and DEV
    Ven is the Vendor and Devi is the Device
    Go to PCI database and do a search for the VEN
    Then search for the DEV and youll know that device
    Regards
