Sound is weird, when I open the Administrator mode for sound, no sound on the configuration under other button. Then when I open the favorites configure desktop, music is grayed out. Where can I post many attachments so you can see the screenshots?
Do you have any sound at all ?
You could try working your way through the openSUSE audio troubleshooting guide: SDB:AudioTroubleshooting - openSUSE
If that does not help, please note that to determine if you have sound, please copy and paste the following speaker-test into a Gnome terminal or a kde konsole: speaker-test -c2 -l5 -twavYou should hear a female voice saying âFRONT LEFTâ, âFRONT RIGHTâ five times.
If you have no success with the audio troubleshooting guide, then I will need more information if I am to make a recommendation ⌠So can you provide more very detailed information so a good recommendation can be given? You can do that, with your PC connected to the internet, by opening a gnome-terminal or a kde konsole and typing:
/usr/sbin/alsa-info.sh
that will run a diagnostic script and post the output to a web site on the Internet. It will give you the URL of the web site. Please post that URL here. It may be that you need to run that script with root permissions. Please note that I need that output to understand better your PCâs configuration.
Also, please copy and paste the following commands one line at a time into a gnome-terminal or a konsole and post here the output: rpm -qa | grep alsa
rpm -qa | grep pulse
rpm -q libasound2
uname -a
cat /etc/modprobe.d/soundI also need that output. Hopefully with that I can make a good recommendation.
Script One:
Your ALSA information is located at http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=f72c6fe8dd2c5fb40943759a261e59bdae9f5c27
and
Script Two:
cat: /proc/asound/seq/clients: No such file or directory
uploading /tmp/tsalsa.txt to nopaste.com
tsalsa completed in 297 seconds
paste this url in #alsa: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC â-//IETF//DTD HTML//ENâ>
<html><head><title>Internal Server Error</title></head><body><h1>Internal Server Error</h1></body></html>
I hope this helps. It is still not working.
oldPC this all of the scripts you wanted me to run.

That model option looks wrong. Iâll bet you are getting error messages in your dmesg file.
Note the model options for the stac9221 (which is on your PC) are the following (according to 1.0.18a of alsa, which ):
STAC9220/9221
ref Reference board
3stack D945 3stack

Hence try changing your /etc/modprobe.d/sound file to :
options snd slots=snd-hda-intel
# u1Nb.SKd9ugadH23:82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
and restart your PC and test your sound.
If that does not work, then try changing the /etc/modprobe.d/sound file to:
options snd-hda-intel model=3stack
options snd slots=snd-hda-intel
# u1Nb.SKd9ugadH23:82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
and restart your alsa driver with su -c ârcalsasound restartâ enter root password when prompted, start your mixer and test your sound.
If â3stackâ does not work replace it with another model option from the list (such as 5stack) and restart your alsa sound driver, your mixer and test ⌠etc âŚ
Please use the sound test: speaker-test -c2 -l5 -twav
You should hear a female voice saying âFRONT LEFTâ, âFRONT RIGHTâ five times.
This thing is still not quite right, but with some slight changes on the settings for Amarok and KScd it works now.
What I still donât understand is why under the Administrator>Hardware>sound. I get absolutely no sound when I run the test. Volume sliders are all maxed out, but still nothing. I am throughly stumpted on this sound issue for 11.1 Version 10.3 absolutely had no problem what so ever and I am using the same machine, no new equipment.
The life of a computer sometimes, but at least I have some tunes available while I work. Thanks, Clois
Frankly, other than YaST not working for your sound, I have no idea what your symptoms were. I specifically asked if you had âany sound at allâ to which you stated âit is still not workingâ, which frankly meant nothing to me, and it did not answer my question.
Iâm glad to read now you have something working now.
I am sorry oldPC,(It was not my intention to deceive you, but my YAST sound configuration did NOT work, nor the configure desktop). But the funny thing was on boot up I would get a couple of tones, then it would pop an error box and say the sound card had a problem and then on shut down I would get a series to ascending tones, 4 I think and not always consistent. I had checked the Kmix sliders and the yast sliders, but couldnât get my cdâs to play. I could see it playing on the Amarok and the Kscd, but not output.
sometimes with kscd one needs to change its configuration changing an analog to digital switch (or maybe visa vera). 11.1 also has a bug requiring regular users be added to group cdrom and group disk, although its possible a fix to that bug has been sent out by now (and fix incorporated if users have been updating their 11.1)
