no audio when lid closed.
 
Hello All,

I have this problem with my Fedora 9 installation on my IBM T61.

When I close the lid and then open it again the audio would be gone. I will have to log off and then back on to get it back.

Any one had a similar problem? or can help me with this?

Thanks.

can you advise does closing lid lead to
suspend to ram or disk..hibernate etc?

does that mean your old operating system maybe ms? worked the way you want it?

closing the lid leads to suspending the disk.

And yes, it was find under windows.

Thanks.

ok try a restart of alsa inside re-awakened system

Code:

su
/etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart


2) suspend again and see if if stops again...if (1) worked create a bash script and stick it in the desktop to run on clicking

3) if alsa-utils failed for you can you report if alsamixer shows volumes ok and unmuted where needed

I do not have that script on my laptop. And there is no alsa* service on my laptop. Also that alsamixer is ok.

Any other clue?

yes and no

I found this setting inside /etc/default/alsa but yours may be diff area as diff distro

Code:

# Configuration file for alsa-base

# List, separated by spaces, the names of modules that should be
# unloaded, if present, before the machine is suspended. Use the
# special name "all" if you would like all ALSA sound modules to be
# removed. The modules that are removed will be loaded again after
# resume.  Currently this only has an effect if you are using apmd.
# Examples:
#    Value        Action at suspend time
#    ""            Do nothing
#    "snd-cs46xx"  Stop sound processes and remove the snd-cs46xx module
#    "all"        Stop sound processes and remove all ALSA modules
force_unload_modules_before_suspend=""

I would suggest try all and see if that helps
