Open the log file viewer, which can be launched from the Mint menu and take a look at the logs. Look for any error messages, that might be connected to sound issues. After finding an error message, I usually google for it and find a solution. Otherwise post it here, so that someone can help you. We need more information to understand why it is not working. Did it work on other versions of Mint?

This incident together with my friend who has a compaq CQ42 ,The main problem is because the ALSA mixer is still version 1.0.21, the default version of ALSA are packaged together in teams LinuxMint, and must be upgraded to the latest version, version 1.0.23. Okay try this :
1. Open your terminal ,and check the version of ALSA :
2. Then turn off ALSA service :
3. Install equipment that will be required to compile the kernel (Internet required... ) :
4. Then moved to homedirectory, and download new alsa-driver, alsa-lib and alsa-utils to our homedirectory :
5. Create a new folder to compile from the 3 files that you downloaded in the first step, open the console, enter root mode, and check the version of ALSA that we have :
6. Extract the 3 files :
7. Then stay compile and install, the first alsa-driver (This will take a long time):
8. Second, compile and install alsa-lib :
9. Finally, compile and install alsa-utils :
10. Remove the source that is not used anymore :
11. Reboot your laptop :
12. Check the ALSA which is updated, if correctly been updated will be like this :
13. Latest ALSA configuration :
14. Finally, reboot your laptop again and test the voice :
1. Open your terminal ,and check the version of ALSA :
