Hi,
It's one months that Sparky's audio is off! I don't know why! I've 2 SO on this pc, and in Lubuntu I can ear all Music, Video ecc but here no.
Can someone help me?
Thanks
Run Gnome Alsa Mixer and check is something marked as mute.
Nothing is marked as mute.
How do you insert immage? I've got 2 screenshot

Show me the output:
lspci | grep Audio
serena@debian:~$ aplay -l

Looks like you have two cards.
Run: alsamixer and change the default card via F6 key.
Make sound test:
aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/*.wav
speaker-test -c 2
If still no effects show me:
lsmod | grep snd
cat /proc/asound/cards
grep 'audio' /etc/group

How you can imagine the sound test failed. So that is the next.
What about groups?
Sorry I don't know how you mean

I asked you before to show me the output too:
grep 'audio' /etc/group
serena@debian:~$ grep 'audio' /etc/group
audio:x:29:pulse,serena
OK, it looks fine.
The Kabini HDMI card modules are loaded, but doesn't work, but I found nothing in the net to fix it.
FCH Azalia doesn't work at all but some guys fixed it after removing pulseaudio.
So uninstall 'pulseaudio' package, reboot and run alsamixer after (F2 and F6) to choose the second card.
Let me know does it help.
Hi. I've been away for a while, so I couldn't reply in time.
The setup really looks like it's a dual-card system. The first one being a virtual card (HDMI cable), the second one being the physical. Depending on which one you have connected at the time of sound playback you need to check the appropriate one. Fire up the alsamixer in the terminal. Have something playing (like a YouTube video, something that won't stop after a few seconds so you have time to experiment). In the alsamixer use the F6 key to switch between sound cards and try changing different volume levels (arrow keys, left and right - different options, up and down - volume levels) and mute status (the M key switches between muted and unmuted, MM symbol being muted and OO being unmuted). Check which card reacts to these changes. When you find it we'll think about setting it as the default card.
serena@debian:~$ aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/*.wav
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1022:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
aplay: main:722: audio open error: File o directory non esistente
serena@debian:~$ speaker-test -c 2
speaker-test 1.0.28

After uninstalled pulseaudio and made a reboot, it says so.
I used a live cd and the audio is perfect... ???????
Now I'll reinstall pulseaudio... sic :D

No prob Moro.
I've tried but none of them works. The audio with the live cd is perfect... ??
I wonder is it's a PulseAudio problem. You can try using pavucontrol (from the package with the same name) to try to adjust the settings (mainly output and configuration tabs).
Thanks a lot, I didn't had pavucontrol, I've installed it and I've discovered that the audio were cecked on HDMI output.
Finally it's settled!!! ;D
