Audio stopped working

vbsaltydog · 10-24-2012, 02:49 AM

I was watching Revolution on my Ubuntu 10.04 XBMC when my sound stopped.

I did not:

install any new software
do any updates
reboot

before the sound went out.

I deleted the ~.pulse* files and rebooted to no avail.

I ran through step three from the troubleshooting guide:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/So...otingProcedure

but I think this is causing more problems than it is fixing since it hosed my grub, lirc and who knows what else but here is the relevant info:

Please help if you can make sense of the massive amount of sound configs.

Thank you

I'm a newbie myself and was having trouble with getting sound after a new installation of openSuSE12.2. Diagnostics from this link helped me get the sound working again. Just thought i would share this:

Hope it is of some help.

Thanks but I decided it was a good reason to upgrade to Ubuntu 12 so I backed up the desired files, blew away the bad install, and rebuilt on the new OS version.
