I would like to try and help, but I am not smart enough to understand what you posted and apply that to a specific solution.
So if you are willing to let me try help, please remove ALL custom settings that you may have applied for audio. Please put EVERYTHING for audio/sound back the way it was after the initial install.
Then reboot and then please provide the information that is recommended to be provided in our multimedia stickie: Welcome to multimedia sub-area and I will make this easier and quote the salient parts for you from that stickie:
please post in this … sub-forum, providing in your post the following information:
and select the SHARE/UPLOAD option and after the script finishes it will give you a URL to pass to the support personnel. Please post here the output URL/website-address that gives. Just the URL/website-address. You may need to run that script twice (the first time with root permissions to update in the /usr/sbin directory, and the second time to get the URL).
.
Note if for some reason that gives you no website/url/address then run it with the no-upload option:
/usr/sbin/alsa-info.sh --no-upload
and post the file /etc/alsa-info.txt it creates to Pastebin.com and press SUBMIT on that site and again post here the URL/website-address it provides.
.
… some clarification on running the script “alsa-info.sh” … when you run:
Just post the URL you get (similar to the RED URL in my example, but yours will be different).
Again, if you can not get that, then run this with the no upload option:
/usr/sbin/alsa-info.sh --no-upload
which will create the file /tmp/alsa-info.txt. Copy that file and paste it on Pastebin.com and press submit. That will give you a URL address. Please post that URL here.
Also provide the following:
in a terminal, or xterm, or konsole, type: rpm -qa ‘alsa’ #and post output here
in a terminal, or xterm, or konsole, type: rpm -qa ‘pulse’ #and post output here
in a terminal, or xterm, or konsole, type: rpm -q libasound2 #and post output here
in a terminal, or xterm, or konsole, type: uname -a #and post output here
.
for openSUSE-11.2 or newer
, in a terminal, or xterm, or konsole, type: cat /etc/modprobe.d/50-sound.conf #and post output here>
Before we go any further, please check this for me … I note this in your mixer:
!!Amixer output
!!-------------
!!-------Mixer controls for card 0 [NVidia]
Card hw:0 ‘NVidia’/‘HDA NVidia at 0xfe028000 irq 23’
Mixer name : ‘Realtek ALC861-VD’ Simple mixer control ‘Master’,0
Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined pswitch pswitch-joined penum
Playback channels: Mono
Limits: Playback 0 - 64
Mono: Playback 60 [94%] -4.00dB] [off]
The mute is set in your master volume control and that will stop sound. Please unmute that and again test!
If that does not work, please advise and I’ll check the rpm list you provided.
Also, when testing your sound, try each of the following in a terminal, first as a regular user and then with root permissions:
first:
speaker-test -Dplug:front -c2 -l5 -twav
second, try again:
speaker-test -c2 -l5 -twav
third:
speaker-test -c2 -D hw:0,0 -t wav -l3
fourth, this next command has a volume meter at the bottom of its output with a changing number of #'s and %'s to show volume levels so run this command and tell me if the number of #'s and %'s are changing:
aplay -vv /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_*
fifth: and also:
aplay -vv /usr/share/sounds/alsa/test.wav
Do any of those give an indication of sound ?
Also try those with and without headphones.
Note you only need JUST 1 of those to work, to confirm your sound is functional and that the driver is working. At which time we need then to check desktop setup and/or application setup.
The ‘no-jd’ boot option is ONLY for very specific hardware audio codecs. The HD-Audio-Models.txt file indicates it is ONLY for some implementations (not all) of the STAC9227/9228/9229/927x and STAC92HD73* . Hence unless one has one of those hardware audio codecs, that option will not likely help.
