From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: On a fresh install of FC3, my integrated soundcard with the "82801BA/BAM AC'97 Audio" chipset and snd_intel8x0 module no longer produces any sound--it worked fine under FC2. I have run aumix, alsamixer, kmix, and all the sound levels are set appropriately. When running XMMS and playing a sound file, you will see the sound waves, but no audio is produced. The speakers are on and work fine on another machine. system-config-soundcard detects the sound card, but the test sound does not play either. The closest problem I could find was in this thread: http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-test-list/2004-November/msg00734.html I tried what this suggested, it didn't work. I then tried doing what it said but using "snd-intel8x0" module to exclude, but to no avail. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.9-1.678_FC3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install FC3 on a machine with 82801BA/BAM AC'97 Audio audio chipset. 2.Attempt to play a sound/music Actual Results: You will see sound levels are fine, that XMMS actually working, but no sound is emitted from the computer. Expected Results: I expected music to play in XMMS just like it does in FC2. Additional info: Here is the output of a couple commands: lspci _____________ 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corp. 82815 815 Chipset Host Bridge and Memory Controller Hub (rev 04) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corp. 82815 CGC [Chipset Graphics Controller] (rev 04) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corp. 82801 PCI Bridge (rev 11) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corp. 82801BA ISA Bridge (LPC) (rev 11) 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corp. 82801BA IDE U100 (rev 11) 00:1f.2 USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM USB (Hub #1) (rev 11) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM SMBus (rev 11) 00:1f.4 USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM USB (Hub #2) (rev 11) 00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM AC'97 Audio (rev 11) 01:07.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 0d) 01:09.0 SCSI storage controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic 53c875 (rev 03) lsmod ____________ Module Size Used by i810 79685 2 parport_pc 24705 1 lp 11565 0 parport 41737 2 parport_pc,lp autofs4 24005 0 i2c_dev 10433 0 i2c_core 22081 1 i2c_dev nfs 221765 1 lockd 63337 2 nfs sunrpc 160421 4 nfs,lockd dm_mod 54741 0 button 6481 0 battery 8517 0 ac 4805 0 md5 4033 1 ipv6 232705 10 uhci_hcd 31449 0 snd_intel8x0 34829 2 snd_ac97_codec 64401 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_pcm_oss 47608 0 snd_mixer_oss 17217 2 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 97993 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer 29765 1 snd_pcm snd_page_alloc 9673 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm gameport 4801 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_mpu401_uart 8769 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_rawmidi 26725 1 snd_mpu401_uart snd_seq_device 8137 1 snd_rawmidi snd 54053 11 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_mpu401_uart,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device soundcore 9889 2 snd e100 39493 0 mii 4673 1 e100 floppy 58609 0 ext3 116809 2 jbd 74969 1 ext3 sym53c8xx 70113 0 scsi_transport_spi 12353 1 sym53c8xx sd_mod 16961 0 scsi_mod 118417 3 sym53c8xx,scsi_transport_spi,sd_mod
This sounds a lot like bug 135979 ... Does doing the following help: 1. Adding snd-intel8x0m to /etc/hotplug/blacklist 2. Edit /etc/asound.conf abd set the period_size to 512 3. Rebooting If to does then this is surely a duplicate...
I gave your solution a shot, still doesn't work. Thanks anyhow.
I had a lot of problems with FC3 and 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) AC'97. My solution was to shut down asound, copy my old /etc/asound.state from the old FC2 system, put it on the new FC3 install, and then start asound again. Then, everything worked fine. Something seemed to be nutty with the way the initial state gets set up. Mucking with mixers and iecset never got me anywhere.
I have the same problem as Philip had! Is it possible to have the /etc/asound.state to give a try?
More likely a duplicate of Bug #144742? Please test the workaround there.
An update has been released for Fedora Core 3 (kernel-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3) which may contain a fix for your problem. Please update to this new kernel, and report whether or not it fixes your problem. If you have updated to Fedora Core 4 since this bug was opened, and the problem still occurs with the latest updates for that release, please change the version field of this bug to 'fc4'. Thank you.
