Subject: [gentoo-user] HDA ATI SB ALC892 sometimes no sound
Date: Fri, 22 Apr 2011 14:45:32
Message-Id: 4DB1941B.6040609@binarywings.net
1 Hi list!
2
3 I've recently bought a Gigabyte GA-880GMA-UD2H board (AM3, integrated
4 Radeon HD 4200). The problem is, sometimes sound works out-of-the-box.
5 Then I reboot and there is no sound at all. There is no error - just no
6 output. The SPDIF port (which I really need) does not emit any light,
7 then. Sometimes after a cold reboot, it works again.
8
9 I've found several threads pointing to problems with kernel 2.6.32
10 (solved in 2.6.33, I'm on 2.6.36). Some others made me wonder if alsa is
11 confused by the HDMI output of the graphics card. I blacklisted
12 snd_hda_codec_atihdmi and switched driver from fglrx to radeon but it
13 did not change anything. I don't have the means to check whether there
14 is any output over HDMI.
15
16 I know that at least Volker has a similar board. Maybe others as well.
17 Does someone have a clue what's going on?
18
19 I'll append some info.
