You cannot run sudo alsa-init. It is in /usr/sbin, so you would
have to run:

Code:
sudo /usr/sbin/alsa-init
if you don't want to run as a root.
To become a root, type:

Code:
su -
If you still don't find that command (which just does this:
Code:
/usr/bin/set_default_volume -f $1 >/dev/null 2>&1
exec /usr/sbin/alsactl -F restore $1 >/dev/null 2>&1
then you might consider installing alsa-tools and alsa-utils.

I'll keep an eye on this thread as I've already tried many things, and restoring alsa was the only thing that helped me.
