That has fixed it, thanks very much. Incidentally I also commented out the previous line which seemed contradictory therefore the last two lines of my alsa-base.conf now read:
I am not sure what the 'ref' option does and maybe it would be harmless but as of now I have sound for the first time since my 10.04 upgrade some several months ago. Thanks again to those who took the time to comment.
Hi,
That has fixed it, thanks very much. Incidentally I also commented out the previous line which seemed contradictory therefore the last two lines of my alsa-base.conf now read:
#options snd-hda-intel model=ref
options snd-hda-intel model=dell_desktop
I am not sure what the 'ref' option does and maybe it would be harmless but as of now I have sound for the first time since my 10.04 upgrade some several months ago. Thanks again to those who took the time to comment.
