No Sound: ESS1983S Maestro
Posted: Sat 14 Jul 2012, 06:11
Hi, new to linux and have just installed Slacko but dont have any sound.
Have followed some youtube clips and other suggestions in the forum but to no avail.
I *may* have made things worse by changing (accidently) my audio HW=0 to 1 in the volume icon in taksbar. Now I cant get the retrovol or alsa mixer up in the task bar.
I have run alsaconf, and alsamixer from console and set the volumes up but still nothing. I cant find where to undo what I did but have run Alsa wizard a few times so that may be enough? I've tried to run retrovol from console and get
retrovol: hcontrol.c:573: snd_htcl_load: Assertion `htcl->count == 0` failed.
Any help on what to check / change and how to do it would be really appreciated.
The laptop is a 10yr old dell. Other than sound everything is working great.
