No sound on VIA high definition audio controller (i think)

This is what should make sound on my laptop:
04:01.0 Audio device: VIA Technologies, Inc. VIA High Definition Audio Controller (rev 10)
aplay -l  shows:
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: VT82xx [HDA VIA VT82xx], device 0: VT1708 Analog [VT1708 Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: VT82xx [HDA VIA VT82xx], device 6: Si3054 Modem [Si3054 Modem]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
I have tried both the snd_hda_intel and snd_via82xx drivers but they both don't work... even with this modprobe.conf:
alias char-major-116 snd
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss
No sound whatsoever though

Try using the ac97_quirk option in modprobe.conf:
options snd-via82xx ac97_quirk=n
Where n ranges from 0 to 3. Start with 0 and work your way up.

  • IDT high definition audio not working

    Maybe I'm just unlucky i don't really know. But Win 8.1 has been an utter disaster for me i hate the interface and the myriad problems with drivers and giving permission to certain files even though you turned UAC off. Anyway my latest woe is now i have no sound, it was working fine this morning and when i came back to it all i get is scratchy sound. the on board sound is IDT high definition audio and windows says the device is working just fine. The scratchy sound is still there through my Roccatt headset when i unplug the speakers so it must be the sound card methinks. But can it BE when windows says its working fine?Tried uninstalling the driver and reinstalling all to no avail still the problem persists. even tried to restore the computer to an earlier time but the problem still remains in fact i have no sound its just scracthy noise.Running win 8.1 64bit HP Pavillion 500-081A any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi merlin851526,
    Sorry to hear about your experience with Windows 8.1 I will be happy to help you with your sound problem. I have two different options for you to try. I know that you have already tried reinstalling the drive but try the driver I have linked below. It has helped others resolved their sound issues with 8.1. I have also included a link to the Microsoft FixIt Tool to fix sound issue with Windows 8. To be honest I am not sure if it supports Windows 8.1 but it is worth a look.

  • Idt high definition audio - no sound HP ProBook 6540b XP

    I want to share my struggle with HP Laptop 6540b
    When I get this laptop there was XP sp3 installed but no sound working
    After several action - changing drivers updating system etc nothing helps at all
    So I made second installation of XP on this laptop different on disc
    New Xp was installed to get sound working
    DO NOT INSTALL IDT driver from HP for Windows XP - do not work !!!
    after installation driver from HP you need to reinstall XP to get sound working
    Manual how to:
    1. Installation service pack

    Language: All (Global)
    Platform: i386

    Reboot
    2. Installing manually service pack
    kb888111xpsp2.exe
    I got it out of IDT hp driver -Winrar  after extraction there is folder HDAQFE and inside xpsp2 you will find it
    Winrar -> extract files in side
    3. Go to Device manager
    find System devices-> Microsoft UAA  Bus Driver for High Definition Audio
    update driver - chose folder where you extracted kb888111xpsp2.exe folder commonfiles and install
    Reboot
    4. Go to Dell web site find SigmaTel sound driver R167846.exe
    Winrar extract
    5 Device Manager manual installation
    find Sound video games controller manually install Sigma Tel driver from location where you extracted files
    reboot
    And you have SOUND BACK

    Hi, 
    I too have been pulling my hair out with this problem on the 6540B. However after  2 days of various driver combinations I've finally found a working fix. I don't have the luxury of reinstalling Windows XP as the machine is custom configured with apps which will take over a week to configure again.
    If you've got no audio it's probably because you've installed the IDT High Def Audio Driver. You may have tried a whole bunch of other options also to try and rectify the problem as I did.
    The solution is fairly simple:
    Goto to add/remove programs and remove "SoundMax".
    Reboot
    The audio driver may try to reinstall on boot up... allow it to install. It will still not work and will still show exclamation mark against IDT driver in Device Manager.
    Goto run... then type regedit and hit enter. Windows registry opens.
    Goto My Computer>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>SYSTEM>CurrentControlSet>Services>
    Delete the WHOLE KEY for AEAudio and then exit regedit
    Go to device manager and uninstall the IDT High Def Audio device from Device Manager
    Then using the original HP Application and Driver Recovery DVD supplied with the notebook, run the autoplay, choose Hardware Enabling Drivers, tick only the IDT High Def Audio driver and follow the installation instruction on screen. You will be prompted to reboot after which Windows will find new hardware. The IDT will install itself and you will find that the sound works!
    Good Luck!
    For those that cannot find their original disk, the IDT Audio Driver from the original disk is available at http://tinyurl.com/IDTAudio6540b or http://www.4shared.com/file/RxXn5afj/IDTAUDIO.html

  • Problems with sound drivers - audio device on high definition audio bus

    i turned on my computer one day and the sound was gone. no "speaker" icon in the lower right-hand corner of the screen; no choices available via the "control panel: sounds and audio devices" icon. when i went to device manager, i saw "audio device on high definition audio bus" had a yellow exclamation mark. i saw some sites suggested downloading the realtek high definition audio, but that didn't seem to work -- and now i don't see the audio device on high definition audio line either.
    any ideas? from what i've read, i gather this is a somewhat common problem but no solid way to fix this. i know something similar has happened to me a year ago but i was able to fix it somehow.

  • HP High Definition Audio Device Code 10 Error -- Causing HDMI Sound Problem

    Hey guys, my laptop is an HP ENVY TouchSmart m7-j010dx Notebook PC, running Windows 8.1.
    When I connect my laptop to my LG Smart TV through HDMI, I cant change the playback device to play the sound from the TV. The HDMI option does not appear in ¨Sound¨.
    When I look in Device Manager, under Sound, video and game controllers; the High Definition Audio CODEC has an error which says (Device status):  
    This device cannot start. (Code 10)
    {Operation Failed}
    The requested operation was unsuccessful.
    I have tried reinstalling and updating the drivers, cleaning and defraging the registry, optimizations etc.
    I followed steps from other posts with similar problem as mine and nothing seems to work, I do not want to reinstall my windows just for this! I am running out of options, I tried everything I could for the past week. I would really appreciate some expert advice.
    Thanks!

  • I remove by mistake the realtek audio device high definition audio bus. Now, the sound of my computer is not working. What should I do?

    Hi! 
    I remove by mistake the realtek audio device high definition audio bus. Now, the sound of my computer is not working. What should I do?

    first go to start-all programs- windows update is at the top of the list follow the prmpts to install microsoft update which is the new version of windows update if microsoft update is all ready installed go there and select custom then let it look for updates
    then if it detects missing drivers it will install or guide you on what to do. If you have an r52 laptop then try this link.
    http://support.lenovo.com/en_CA/downloads/detail.page?LegacyDocID=MIGR-58599 the best of luck.
    2 if that doesnt work then try this  open device manager right click on the sound device you may have to expand sound, video and game controlers on the tab that comes up select properties then select the drivers tab  select update driver.   
    do it this way incase the driver installation failed the frist time it may not ask you to update again if you didnt uncheck the box that came up on frist try.
    3.find a mother board disk and search the disk using explore for ac97 realtech driver. actually windows update should solve it also try there  FIX IT web site there are many automatied fixes there for your use.

  • L channel sound comes through both L and R speakers after installing IDT High Definition Audio Codec

    I noticed a sound problem on my laptop. The R channel works as expected but the L channel is split between the L and R speakers. After checking several different possibilities I narrowed the problem down to the IDT High Definition Audio Codec that I downloaded from the HP driver support page for my notebook model and operating system.
    I uninstalled the IDT High Definition Audio Codec and restarted. This forced Windows to resort to using its generic "HD Audio Device" default. When I did this the sound was equally split between the L and R speakers as I would expect - L channel 100% though L speaker, R channel 100% though R speaker. I then re-downloaded the IDT High Definition Audio Codec from HP (sp59654.exe), re-installed it, and restarted. Immediately the sound problem was back - while the R channel comes 100% though the R speaker, the L channel is split between L and R speakers.
    Please note this has nothing to do with adjusting speaker "balance". Both L and R channel volumes were set to 100% while investigating this problem. It's definitely some sort of incompatibilty between the IDT High Definition Audio Codec and Windows 8 64-bit or the sound hardware in the HP Envy DV6.  
    Here are my details:
    IDT High Definition Audio Codec
    Publisher: IDT
    Date: 8/19/2012
    Version: 6.10.6425.0
    Notebook
    HP Envy DV6-7200
    Windows 8 64-bit

    Here is what I would recommend you trying. Go to device manager and uninstall the audio driver. Once it is uninstalled, go to the device manager toolbar and select "Scan for hardware changes". After it completes, reboot the computer. Once the computer is rebooted, test the audio and let me know if that helped.

  • No Sound after updating IDT High Definition Audio Codec on my HP Pavilion dv6-6154tx laptop

    I recently ran Advanced Driver Update to check and updated my audio driver (IDT High Definition Audio Codec) on my Windows 7 laptop. However, after the update, every time I boot up the computer, there is no audio output. I checked the volume control options and they are all fine, showing "all devices are playing sound". But there is no sound. Even the 'test sound' option does not play any audio, although the computer says that it is working fine. I read some posts on this forum and came across an answer - to uninstall the current driver from Device Manager, and manually install IDT HD Audio Driver for Windows. This works and I am able to get back the sound. However, I have to do this every time I start my computer after shutting it down, and this is proving cumbersome. Can somebody please help me with this and suggest a solution? Thanks.

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp59001-59500/sp59291​.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 thisand then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold  down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
    Start the notebook and 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.

  • Sound Playback Issue with IDT High Definition Audio Codec HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC

    Since i bought this laptop, every time i use skype or the Windows Sound Recorder, i hear static that drastically increases in volume.

    Does anyone know a permanent fix to this issue?
