Problem
After upgrading from Ubuntu 9.04 to 9.10 you might not get the sound from your Sound Blaster Audigy sound card.
Solution
Install GNOME Alsa Mixer
sudo apt-get install gnome-alsamixer
or
Click on the following link
Now open GNOME ALSA Mixer from Applications -> Sound & Video -> GNOME ALSA Mixer
Choose the tab: “SigmaTel…”
Turn on “Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack”
That’s it now your sound should work as normal
I had this problem like 2 years ago. I ended up recompiling alsa, then someone posted the same fix as you but using the Sound control window and going to the “Switched” tab.
Turn on “Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack”
should read
Turn OFF “Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack”
(i.e. make sure its checkbox isn’t checked).
priceless!
I did all the steps, but the very last one I couldn’t do it, because I do not have this option:
“Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack”
my case was rather strange, I did the upgrade and the sounds was working just fine (no mic tho), and yesterday while I was listening music, the sound suddenly stopped, so I do not know, what my situation could be.

i just installed alsamixer, after that, what my audigy detected is ‘TriTech TR28602′ and since i use analog output, i dont have to uncheck the checkbox. but unfortunately, skype still unable to hear my own voice during test call

hi,
i have the same problem on an eeepc 901 - no sound at all. at the begining it worked but only with the local speakers, no output line. i tried the suggestions in the forum but couldn’t make it work. when i start the gnome alsa mixer i get an empty window and when i try to access the ’sound card properties’ from the edit menu the application crashes immediately .. any idea on that one.
thanks,
andrei
