Sound Card Trouble After -Syu

Hello,
I'm really not sure what I've done, but my sound is no longer working, and alsamixer does not detect my sound card anymore.
I upgraded to kernel26 2.6.30.5-1 earlier today and so I suppose that could be to blame. I rebooted into the fallback kernel and the sound still works fine.
I am using ALSA,
SB Audigy 2 [SB0240P] Chip SigmaTel STAC 9721,23
lspci gives me:
06:07.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy (rev 04)
06:07.1 Input device controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy Game Port (rev 04)
06:07.2 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Creative Labs SB Audigy FireWire Port (rev 04)
I also, earlier today, ran the command:
aconnect -x
Could that be related?
I have been reading the forum and reviewing the ALSA wiki, but to no avail.
I am completely at a loss.

It doesn't work every time, but after four times rebooting with Fallback it worked.
Here is the regular lsmod:

  • HP Pavilion dv2500 no sound card detected after reinstallation

    HP Pavilion entertainment PC (Laptop) dv2500
    OS Windows 7 Ultimate
    AMD system, nvidea 
    I recently upgraded a friends computer from Windows Vista to, windows 7 Ultimate.
    The icon for sound in the task bar ( a speaker) has a red x marked on the speaker.
    After trouble shooting using the windows trouble shooter, I got a message "below"
    Trouble shooting Has completed   
     The troubleshooter has made some changes to your system try attempting the task you were trying to do before 
           problem found
              Hardware changes might not have been detected                                                   Detected    !
    the red x is still there and i still have no sound.
    does this mean that I may need a new sound card or can it possibly be that I need to install a driver.
    If I need a new sound where can I find this driver. Is it possible to us an external driver Is there such a thing
    Thankyou

    this looks like a driver issue. can you share the computer product number, it must be on the bottom of notebook. its something like AB123CD#ABA. that will help me share correct driver to you. thanks

  • Sound Card changes after every reboot

    Alright, I've had this little issue since I installed Arch on one of my computers. After every reboot, the sound card changes and I have to manually edit my .asoundrc to get sound. It's not a huge deal but it is very annoying. How do I prevent my system from switching my sound card?
    This the output from aplay -l

    I'm trying to keep the Xonar STX as the default card.

    Yeah that didn't work. I get a message about .asoundrc being old or corrupted so Alsamixer basically ignores it.
    I assume you changed the 'XFi' (my preferred sound card) to 'STX'

  • [Solved] SB Live 5.1 Sound card changes after each reboot.

    Hi
    I have SB Live 5.1 soundcard that changes it's "location" after each upgrade, and I have to do the changes manually in the different applications: xmms, vlc, xine, etc in order to have sound back.
    As you can imagine it's quite tediuos to do the changes everytime.
    And videos, radio or music, can't be heard at all from internet.
    Only when sound card is in hw: 0,0 no manually setups are not needed and sound in internet is ok.
    This is the aplay -l output when is in hw: 0,0
    play -l

    Hi
    Now it's solved following this link: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ALSA
    There found section: Set the default sound card
    Where have to change file /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf
    options snd-emu10k1 index=0
    and also in /etc/rc.conf disable modules of the other sound card:
    MODULES=(!snd-via82xx)
    Tks

  • No sound card detected after update [solved] kernel update fixed it

    lsmod |grep snd
    gives nothing.

  • K8t neo fis2r - core center not functional after installing sound card

    Hi.  I had been using Core Center with Dynamic Overclocking enabled and all was well.  When idle, my amd64 3000+ (2.0ghz), was running at 800mhz.  Under load it would go up to 2100mhz.  But yesterday, I installed an Auzentech x-plosion sound card and after i installed the driver, the dynamic overclocking stopped working, my cpu is running at max all the time.  (The variable fan speed function still works). 
    I checked the IRQ and there is no conflict, I uninstalled the amd64 driver and core center and reinstalled.  Still does not work.  I uninstalled the auzentech driver, rebooted, and cancelled new hardware wizard.  Then the variable cpu frequency feature worked.  Once I install the driver for the auzentech, dynamic oc stops working.  I was thinking to try another pci slot but it appears to be a software issue rather than a hardware issue.  The new version of Core Center does not work with my board even though msi says it's compatible so I'm still using the one that always worked.  The amd driver is the latest and also always worked.
    Has anyone else had a similar problem, perhaps using the auzentech sound card with this board and Core Center?  Or does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    Hey guys, I just went to AMDs site to get the dashboard utility mentioned and in the readme, it stated that in XP, the power option needs to be set to portable/laptop.  But in the past, I read that it needed to be set to "always on" and that it is, in fact, what I had it set to before when cool n quiet was working.  Now I change it to "portable/laptop" and it works and set to "always on" doesn't work anymore.  So now Core Center reports I'm at 33c @800mhz at no load.   I don't get it???  I'll have to try an alternate utility just to verify that is indeed working.
    btw, QV, I checked system properties, (right-click my computer > properties, or "system" in control panel) and on the "general" tab, it indicates an AMD64 3000+, 2.0GHz.  But I'm pretty certain the clock frequency is dropping now as reported by core center because of the decrease in the cpu temp at idle.  Am I looking in the right place in XP?  I have XP pro, SP2
    Again, thanks for the input and Happy New Year  

  • 6712 New Sound Card Freezes PC

    I have a KT4AV-L MS-6712 that has worked great for several years. I'm running XP SP3 with 1.5GB memory and an XP2500. All software is updated/current.
    One channel of the on-board sound device has become very weak and distorted so I installed a new C-Media 8738 sound card. After installing the driver for the sound card, playing audio from WinMP, RealPlayer, YouTube, whatever - gives me a couple of seconds of audio then freezes the computer. Mouse and all are locked up.
    I made sure to disable the old sound device in BIOS after removing the AC97 driver and setting the new sound card as the default device.
    The driver for the new sound card is current. Nothing unusual appears in the Event Log at the time of the freeze.
    What am I missing? Your ideas/suggestions are appreciated.

  • [SOLVED] Alsamixer always on 0 vol. when plugging in USB sound card

    Hi.
    I have another newbie question!
    This time my problem is about sound.
    Every time I plug in my USB sound card, alsamixer forgets its previous volume and sets it to 0.
    I tried "alsactl -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state store" as said in the wiki for storing the settings, even tried to delete the file before doing so.
    I even tried simply "alsactl store" or something like that.
    No matter how many times I set it to  100, alsa just forgets it. In pavucontrol I see the volume meter showing that the sound is okay (I guess I mean the sound stream?), but I have to start alsamixer every time I want to use my USB sound card. And because it's a notebook, I usually plug/unplug it like 5 times a day, so keeping it plugged in is not an option.
    Just because of curiosity I tried it on a Fedora 15 live and it was working like a charm so I know there is a solution, I just can't find it.
    What should I do?
    Thanks in advance!

    To be honest, I don't even know what I should see here... :S
    Typing "udevadm control --log-priority=debug" haven't told me anything, so I don't know if it was okay or not.
    Afterwards I started Fedora live, went to the udev rules, the only suspicious file was "90-alsa-tools-firmware.rules", but it was about loading some firmware for some specific sound cards.
    After reading that, I tried this rule:
    SUBSYSTEM=="usb", RUN+="/root/alsa-usb.sh"
    - It was a failure.
    After searching in the above mentioned link and the Arch udev Wiki I tried this:
    KERNEL=="sd*", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", RUN+="/root/alsa-usb.sh"
    - Failure as well. Kernel "sd*" because I don't know what else.
    Then I google'd some more and the closest I could find was the following:
    KERNEL=="audio1", SUBSYSTEM=="sound", RUN+="/root/alsa-usb.sh"
    - Failure.
    At this point I don't know what to do. (Strange, eh?)
    I guess my udev rule is incorrect in 2 points: kernel and subsystem. How could I check those? I tried lspci, because I've heard about it somewhere, but I don't think it is useful for me.

  • [solved] Pulseaudio doesn't detect sound card after system update

    Before a recent system update I had pulseaudio working flawlessly, but after doing a recent system update with pacman -Syu,
    pulseaudio no longer sees my sound card and only displays the Dummy audio device.  Among the packages updated that I can
    remember off the top of my head are the Linux keneral, udev, kmod, instead of trying to roll back my system I figured I would try
    to fix the issue.  The only thing suggested in the Pulseaudio wiki is that a asound.conf directory is overriding the /etc/asound.conf
    file which is not the case on my system.
    Looking at the output from lsmod I can see where the kernel modules for the sound card is getting loaded
    snd_hda_intel 23375 0
    snd_hda_codec 89160 3 snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_codec_hdmi

    snd_page_alloc 7153 2 snd_pcm,snd_hda_intel
    snd_timer 19544 1 snd_pcm
    and looking at the output from the ps command I can see that pulseaudio is getting started

  • Satellite L755-16J - Trouble with sound card

    I currently own a Toshiba *Satellite L755-16J* and it is having some sort of trouble with the sound card, i think.
    When i bought it, it came with windows 7, i changed the windows to windows 8 and since then the audio has been troubling me.
    The internal speakers work for a minute or two when i play an audio file but then stop working.
    i had been using an external usb soundcard and external speakers for some time but decided to switchback to windows 7 for the sound to work properly again. even though i have switched back to win 7, the sound still doesnt work.
    I am quite sure that the problem is not in the internal speakers because they do work, although just for a brief moment but they work, so i am guessing the problem is in the software instead of the hardware.
    i tried updating the sound drivers but they seem to be up to date, according to windows the drivers "seem to be working properly"
    Can anyone help?

    > even though i have switched back to win 7, the sound still doesnt work.
    How did you do that?
    Did you use the Toshiba Recovery Disk in order to install Win 7 or did you install the Win 7 using fresh and clean Windows 7 disk?
    The notebook supports Conexant sound chip. The sound driver is available on the Toshiba EU driver page and in case the sound chip is already recognized in device manager after the sound driver installation, I assume the driver has been installed properly.
    In such case I would recommend you to connect the headphones.
    In case the headphones would function properly, the speakers might be affected. I mean the hardware. But of course its only an idea.
    Beside the headphone check, you could check also the settings within the control panel -> sound -> playback tab.
    Usually the speakers should be set as default device.
    Check this option too.

  • Sb live 5.1 trouble after installing new ATI 9550 card... help

    hi there !a couple of days ago my brave asus geforce 4 ti card crashed and i installed an ati excalibur 9550 se as backup. almost everything works fine, only winamp seems to make trouble: whenever i playback some music, it has lapses with buzzing sound (sorry, not a natural speaker so i don't know any fitting words). in the past i got the same effect when i was hearing music while starting to burn an cd/dvd but now it allways happens... anyone an idea what causes this error and how to fix it
    I've got an asus p4b533 board and an soundblaster li've 5. ... since i also use my pc via tv card to watch tv, and the sound of this is absolutly without any errors, i suppose that it can't just be a defect soundcard or mainboard... anybody got the same trouble after installing a new grafic card ?thanks for your help,christian

    Hello. I have the exact same problem and have not been able to fix it. I have a SB Li've with an Asus P4b Motherboard. I've tried many things (playing with Codecs, updating drivers, even returning the card back to the store thinking the problem was hardware). The second card did the samething. I also tried to change the card from its PCI slots (I've tried them all) but it's still creates weird noises when playing MP3s and MPEGs, whatever the slot. Hopefully, I have a sound card integrated to the motherboard, so I use this one instead, but it's not as powerful. When using the SB card, I make sure to deactivate the motherboard's sound card in the BIOS to avoid conflicts. Could anyone help ? I've had this card for a couple of years now and have never been able to use it.

  • [SOLVED]Sound Card No longer detected after pulseadio install

    I recently installed pulseaudio and after the install my /var/lib/alsa/asound.state file was deleted or moved, anyhow now neither pulseaudio or alsa recognize my sound card. Is there a way to regenerate the original asound.state file ? i've already tried alsactl store but alsa apprently can't find my sound card anymore.
    SOLVED: apparently the modules for the sound card were unloaded I don't know what caused it but it was sure annoying
    SOLUTION:
    modprobe snd-hda-intel ; modprobe snd-pcm-oss ; modprobe snd-mixer-oss ; modprobe snd-seq-ossa
    Of course the modules you load will depend on your particular system, I happen to be using the Acer Aspire One netbook so I had an intel hda audio card

    yes i assumed it would be necessary for integration, am i to understand this was the root of the problem ?
    ok so i was reading a gentoo forums post and decided to follow some of the fact finding there and came to some good information.
    sound card is not found in /proc/asound/cards
    sound card isn't in /dev/ anywhere
    so it seems like it just up and disappeared

  • An error message after I install my sound card

    I have one of MSI product. K7N2G-L (MS6570) mainboard for AMD processors. It's bios version is 3.5 (I have flashed it because of the CPU temprature measurement problem, now it show 20 C lower temprature of CPU than it was. Is this normal?).
    My operating system is Windows 98 SE. After I install window I install my sound card. My sound card's model is Creative Sound Blaster Live Value. But after I install Nvidia nforce system drivers and my sound card drivers, whenever I reboot my computer I see an error message. The message is:
    " EMM386 not installed - unable to set frame page address "
    and after this message there says: press any key to continue.
    In fact, after a while Windows 98 starts, even I don't press a key. Why I see this message and how can I prevent to see this message. What is wrong? What should I do?
    If you can help me about this problem I will be so glad.

    Hi..
    I am not sure but this might be one of those DOS drivers that load off the autoexec.bat.. (COs win98 does not use emm386 for extended memory managenent)..
    Try this... Go to the MS-DOS command prompt, type
    C:
    CD
    NOTEPAD autoexec.bat
    And search for a entry that is referting to a file in the Live installation directory and add the words REM infront of it...
    Ex.
    C:LiveLoad.exe
    make it
    REM C:Liveload.exe
    Chances are u will not be needing this file to get audio in the system...
    Good Luck

    [EDIT]
    Try putting rem infront of entry in the audoexec.bat.. u sould be able to catch it easyly

  • Having trouble with my Xtreme Gamer sound card

    I have an Alienware computer that came with the card and its software pre-installed. It has worked fine until today when BF2 would no longer recognize the card. When I uninstalled the software to reinstall it, it said I didn't have any devices. What should I do? I want to refrain from opening the case. Thanks!

    Ya know, it is funny I ran across this thread. I am having the exact same problem with my Alienware and am currently working at trying to resolve it. So far I tried to force the drivers and it did not seem to like that so much. Older patch I found?didn't work. I think my next step is to uninstall everything creative and crack the case open and try removing the card. Then try a different slot if able or boot the comp a couple times without it, and then install it back in the?same slot. No IRQ?problems I checked that. I read somewhere that sometimes something in the bios can bug out and it needs to be re-checked in. Not sure of the exact terms of it atm, but I hope you get the idea. A quick fix that I did find that should work for you as well is to make sure?all?Creative?drivers are cleaned out and then use windows update to search for optional downloads. It finds a driver for the X-Fi that actually works.
    Below is a copy/paste of a request for help?I placed on the Alienware boards just to give you an idea of where I am at. /startcopy?<span class="normalTextSmall">Hello,
    I am at my wits end here. So figured I would come here and ask for some input. Basicly the problem I am having is I have poping/crackling sounds coming from my speakers while playing FSX. What is wierd is it only happens in certain missions and/or planes. It also sounded way messed up at the desktop and during sound tests but I was able to fix that by changing the freq to 24bit lowest hrtz setting studio quality.
    I have been doing a ton of research into this problem and it would seem if I updated my drivers there is a good chance there is a fix in there for me.. I would hope so as I have tried everything under the sun. Known knowledge and reading every forum I could find.
    The big problem I can't seem to over come is that no matter which drivers I use they tell me I am unable to use them because they do not see a Creative X-Fi on my machine. The newest Creative drivers tell me this. Even the Creative drivers that came with my AW backup disk act the same way. The only driver that I could get to work is the one that windows update supplies when the driver is fully uninstalled. What is even funnier is that when I use my AW Respawn disk that is also installs the same exact drivers that Windows Update installs for that card. Which are ancient. Antique really.
    So why would no new Creative drivers want to work? No AW supplied backup drivers want to work? No downloaded X-Fi drivers downloaded from AW site want to work. And why would AW give me a driver for backup when even they themselves obviously did not get that one to work because the respawn disk uses the same old drivers windows update supplies when no drivers are installed?
    I have tried Winzip to unpack the the .exe file and update wizard says that I have the best drivers already installed. Even though these ones just came out. I have even tried to force the drivers in with the have disk option and that just resulted in an unbootable pc thanks to the blue screen of death right after bios flash screen.
    So, how do I get any Creative X-Fi Xtreme Gamer drivers to install. I have to be able to update them, in hopes that they will fix my crackling/static problem..
    Just got the machine the other day so I haven't tried installing other games. And I do realize that AW is not respossible for FSX issues. But I really do find it odd that even my backup drivers won't work, and they were not even used anyways during the build process.. I would have hoped this issue would have been fixed in house then. So it has me really concerned.
    What is my next step? Bios update?(this computer was built around Nov st 07.), Move card around maybe?(shouldn't this have been done before shipping?).. oh my head hurts from this one. I have never had to fold and give up and come to a forum for help. I am truly stumped.

    <span class="normalTextSmall">/endpaste<span class="normalTextSmall">?<span class="normalTextSmall">So far there have been no reply. Someone from Alienware did call us and got in contact with my wife about the post. They?left a message with her?that I should try and install the newest drivers that Creative just released a few days ago. If they would have actually read my post they would have known I did try that. Really my biggest problem left is to get any Creative driver to see I do indeed have?a Creative X-Fi installed so I may update my drivers. Having a sound issue and not being able to update my drivers is driving me insane really. I?honestly?do feel I can learn more by reading around myself than calling them and wasting away a few good hours on the phone with someone that is?gonna?be just as confused about it as I am. lol?<span class="normalTextSmall">?<span class="normalTextSmall">Going to get the time to crack her open tonight, late night.

  • Audio / Sound Card not working after Soundblaster.USB.Audio.Support.pkg

    Ok, first - confess - it was stupid. I installed the Soundblaster.USB.Audio.Support.pkg package, which i downloaded from the internet, to make the harman Kardon Soundsticks (USB-Version) working, as nothing happened when plugging them in.
    First, it ruined the mouse working after reboot and also disabled the internal sound card, not even as device available anymore. I fixed the mouse problem by installing IOUSBFamily-281.4.0-log(PPC).dmg
    How can I make the sound card be available and working again ? I also updated to 10.4.11. Did not help ! Can you ? Thanks !

    Welcome to the Apple discussions.
    First, look in system preferences, accounts, and for your login account look at login items to see if there is a Soundblaster USB module that is loaded when you reboot your system. Delete it if there is one.
    If you updated to 10.4.11 by software update, download the combo update from http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx10411comboupdat eppc.html . The combo update is a complete update for all updates to 10.4, and installing the combo sometimes fixes odd things.
