iam facing one problem regarding sound ,sound is coming but whenever iam increasing or decreasing the volume ,sound sudennly stops.
Does anyone know the solution
OK. Try run "alsaconf" and write down what is the device it detected, we may need this for further fine tuning the configuration.
From here, if it claim configured successfully, try run "alsamixer" to set the mixer level and make sure all is unmuted. Save your setting by running "alsactl store" after exit from the alsamixer.
If the problem continues, you will need to add additional configuration options for your card. But, we need the device name before we can do that.

What do you mean it did not work? You mean, it cannot be detected? If so, your alsa mixer should not be working. No point playing with the mixer if your card is not detectable.
Oh... This means your "ALSA" is either not properly installed or is not in the PATH. You should install all the packages for "ALSA", otherwise, you may have problem playing sounds in the system.
