1 Hi all,
2 About year ago I updated my nVidia graphics card. The sound stopped
3 working and it turns out the new card makes it's onboard, HDMI, audio
4 appear before the motherboard sound hence no sound via the 3.5mm jack. I
5 usually have all of my device drivers statically linked, no modules, so
6 to fix this problem, I had to make the sound driver a module and do some
7 blacklisting voodoo. Besides the dodgy workaround, problem fixed.

9 I'm now in the process of moving from spinning disks to ssd hence have
10 done a total reinstall of Gentoo. After the install, once again I have
11 no sound. Does any one know if in the last year, a nicer way has been
12 found to fix this "problem"?

14 Thoughts greatly appreciated,
15
