Linux Mint Forums

Other people seem to have various sound problems, but I don't have sound from any output jack, so far, not even system beeps.

All of the volume sliders indicate that there would be sound, but does anyone have any ideas how to resolve this?

a few possibilities

1. remove pluseaudio and install alsa


2. try this work around

Solved by adding "options snd_hda_intel model=auto" to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

3. search and read other forumers having sound issues to see if their fixes work on your hardware, like this link..

This seems to have fixed it. Thank you very much!

For anyone else following on this, you have to go back and raise up the volume at the slider again, even if you set it to 100% earlier or not.
