Same as me, I've lost sound capability on Sarge after some update, but
didn't pay attention because I thought it was a side effect of a power
fail happened just during a (huge) update, that caused some (many...)
lost files and probably broke my 2nd hard disk (doh!)... but the sound
thing is a separate issue, as I'm reading...
am running Debian kernel 2.6.8 and using alsa for the Audigy 2 sound
card. I have tried disabling apic and acpi. The card shows up in the
bios messages and lspci. However dmesg displays the following error:
EMU10K1_Audigy: probe of 0000:01:07.0 failed with error -12
Same kernel version, a motherboard with integrated audio card, kernel
module snd_via82xx correctly loaded and working until 2/3 weeks ago. No
errors while booting nor in the logs, but... the audio simply doesn't
play anymore.
I noticed this: I start xmms from an rxvt, it shows up with the volume
slider zeroed, and as I move it rightward some error messages appear in
the console:
** WARNING **: oss_set_volume(): Failed to open mixer device
(/dev/mixer): No such device
And, obviously:
picard@romula:~$ ls -la /dev/mixer*
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root root 11 Jan 25 01:01 /dev/mixer -> /dev/mixer0
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 0 Jan 25 01:01 /dev/mixer0
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 16 Jan 25 01:01 /dev/mixer1
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 32 Jan 25 01:01 /dev/mixer2
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 48 Jan 25 01:01 /dev/mixer3
picard@romula:~$
And, sure, my user is in audio group (and, it *worked* before). Sound
card and speakers works fine, i tried while in $expensive_os without
problems...
Well, just my 0.02 EUR to get to a solution (and sorry for language
mistakes ^_^)
