No sound with Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series

[weazuul]

Hi guys,
I have a problem with the latest Fedora. Installed it cleanly on a machine with Gigabyte H55M-S2 with Intel Core i3. There seems to be no sound and I checked to see if anything is muted but is not. The manual says that the sound chip is ALC888B so this could be the first problem. Any ide how I can make it work? Here is a dump of some things on my system.

[weaz ~]$ lspci | grep Audio

[weaz ~]$ uname -a

[weaz ~]$ aplay -l

And here is the pastebin of dmesg dump:

Open the Alsa mixer and make sure the PCM output is set to the top.

[weazuul]

I did that. All sliders are set to max, no mute (unmute) on everything.

[weazuul]

so any idea on this issue? no matter what it is, it is welcomed

[Rubberman]

Please post the output for the sound chip from the command 'lspci' as well as the output from the command 'lsmod | grep -i snd'.

[weazuul]

i have something better perhaps the entire dump of alsa-info

and here is lspci and lsmod

I had symptoms similar to described herein after upgrading to Fedora 14, similar hardware (Dell Precision M4500, core i7, everything else pretty much working ok ) Replacing the audio subsystem seemed like a pretty drastic solution, so I dug around. I'm a KDE fan, so I was messing around in Settings -> System Settings.

Eventually, Under Hardware -> Multimedia -> Phonon -> Device Preference I noticed that there were two audio cards listed, one called "Internal Audio Analog Stereo" and one called "High Definition Audio Controller Digital Stereo (HDMI)". If I clicked on one, the audio test (button at the bottom) played sound, the other did not. So I clicked on "prefer" for the sound card that played sound and order was restored to the universe.
