No sound in FC4
I just installed Fedora Core 4 and I don't get any sound.... I tried Desktop>system settings>soundcard detection but after I play the test sound and don't hear it I click on no and this message pops up

FC4 mutes the external amplifier on installation for some reason, at least it did on my system. So it may be that your external amplifier is muted, if you have one that is. From a terminal open alsmixer. Scroll right until you come to the External Amplifier ('external' on the control) . If it shows 'MM' press the 'm' key. Now it should show '00' and your sound should work. Also, make sure your sound system is enabled. And click yes on the test sound message even if you don't hear anything. Hope this helps.

[edit] sorry I didn't see the above above postwhen i clicked reply.
I have had a similar problem in Fedora 2 through 4. What I do (in Gnome) after installing is run the soundcard detection same as you did, but even though I hear nothing, I still click YES. So run it again, but this time click yes. Fedora's hardware detection is second to none IMHO, it may not have failed... the volume is probably muted AND turned all the way down like mine. After a fresh install I run Desktop > System Settings> Soundcard detection Click play test sound. Answer yes. (No matter what. And if my instructions don't work for you, you can just run the thing again and honestly answer no) Next I click System Tools > System Monitor Under processes tab I make sure artsd is not listed. If I see it, whether it is running or not I kill it from the command line. As root I type: killall artsd Also at the command line and as root run: gnome-volume-control Click the playback tab Click on any of the red Xs and Unmute everything. (all of mine will be muted on a fresh install) I slide all the sliders 3/4 the way up. (for some reason all of mine are slid all the way down.) I immediately reboot. After that I always have sound. I also log in to kde desktop and go into the control panel and turn off sound for all events. (aRts does not support my soundcard for some reason, and I would uninstall if I could be it is dependency for too many things I really need) Anyway, maybe these steps can help you. Or even someone else. |

Sorry that I cant offer any solutions, I have been having the same problem for about 2 months now. My onboard sound was working and then I did yum update and it stop working all the sudden. I even went out and bought a soundcard thinking it will solve the problem, still doesnt work. I have even compiled my kernel cause i heard lots people recommend compiling your own kernel to get sound to work and sitll it doesnt work. i installed the latest alsa drivers and nothing. if you find a solution or if someone here can recommend something, i will appreciate it. I have ummuted all chanels in alsamixer. whenever i run alsaconf, i get "command not found"

this is most likely very stupid suggestion but ...
This is most likely a very stupid suggestion but have you made sure that you sound card is inserted correctly and/or the speakers are plugged in.
Try unplugging and rebooting. Then plug back in. I believe this has worked for me in the past. Just trying to help. |

my sound is fixed!!! :D kick ass!!!
I went to Applications> sound and audio > Volume Control in volume control I went to Edit>preferences and I enabled EVERYTHING then I clicked on the switches tab and checked the Audio Analog/Digital Output Jack and then.... BANG!!! my sound was blastin!!! haha :D I'm soo happy now.... :P |
hey admart, where did you find volume control? i have fedora core 3 and went to sound & video==> and i dont have volume control? where can i find
the "application button"? I dont see that neither. thanks in advance |
I just noticed that i dont have a /etc/modules.conf file? could this be the problem since the modules needed for sound are supposed to be stored in this file so they can be loaded when needed? thanks for all the help
