OK.
First try the following:
In the MCC (hardware/sound) there is a button to adjust the mixer settings to default values (don't know exactly the description, my system is german language).
Try this.
There is a good chance, that this would solve your problem.
If not, then ...
disable pulseaudio and reboot
In console (shell):
alsamixer
Your onboard chip should be recognized. If not, select with F6
Adjust mixer settings (master and others). Dont use maximal values, 90 is enough to avoid distortions.
Now your soundcard should work.
Exit alsamixer
We have to save the settings (as root !!!!!) with
alsactl store
To use the same settings after reboot, edit /etc/rc.d/rc.local
put in the last line:
alsactl restore
Hope I could help ...
cheers,
Bernd
/etc/rc.d/rc.local
Now after my words of profound wisdom, I'm going back to procrastinating.
