i have a
Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio (rev 05)

Hi!
Supposing you've tried "alsamixer" and "pavucontrol" I suggest to run:

Code: Select all

gnome-alsamixer
Reading the script I found a different way than I normally use /Julia:
I edit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf - but maybe in LMDE you don't have this file?

Hi!
Please run in a Terminal:

Code: Select all

gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf 
Password
Add at the end:

Code: Select all

options snd-hda-intel model=auto
save, reboot,
then run "alsamixer" in a Terminal window to unmute and adjust ALSA channels.
If this step was unsuccessful, then replace that line with
"options snd-hda-intel model=name of your computer"...
...reboot...

SOLVED! I installed the kernel 2.6.37 in experimental. reboot. reconfigure pulseaudio as in you "how to solve audio issues" then choose the right output and added
options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1
in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

Hi giorsat!
Even though I did not solve your problem, I'm asking you to add [solved] to the subject line, so that people who want to help others can do that as fast as can be.
