1 I have a similar problem.  There was an email thread about it a few months ago.  Nothing much happened with it because sound occasionally works for me.  Sometime it comes back after a reboot or restart of alsasound, and sometimes if I leave the machine running a long time if will just start working or just stop working . . . really weird.  I've been running alsaconf a lot and that seem to get it back most of the time if not I still need to restart alsasound or reboot.Also, if you haven't run python-updater in a while you should, that seems to fix a lot a odd behavior.Good luck.dhk----- Original Message -----From: Florian Philipp Date: Friday, April 22, 2011 10:45 amSubject: [gentoo-user] HDA ATI SB ALC892 sometimes no soundTo: Gentoo User List > Hi list!> > I've recently bought a Gigabyte GA-880GMA-UD2H board (AM3, integrated> Radeon HD 4200).
