In this tutorial we will try to see a solution that will help us fix sound problems in the following Linux distributions:
- Ubuntu 12.10/12.04/11.10
- Linux Mint 13/12
Getting Started
Open the terminal and issue these commands:
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get -y install linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils libasound2
sudo apt-get -y install gdm ubuntu-desktop linux-image-`uname -r`
sudo apt-get -y --reinstall install libasound2 linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils
sudo apt-get -y --reinstall lightdm ubuntu-desktop linux-image-`uname -r`
killall pulseaudio
rm -r ~/.pulse*
sudo usermod -aG `cat /etc/group | grep -e '^pulse:' -e '^audio:' -e '^pulse-access:' -e '^pulse-rt:' -e '^video:' | awk -F: '{print $1}' | tr '\n' ',' | sed 's:,$::g'` `whoami`
When you finish, restart your system. If sound still missing from your system, you can check this article we published some months ago. If you have something to add, please do by commenting below.
