Hello.
I have
"
:~$ lspci | grep audio
:~$ lspci | grep -i audio
00:03.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation Haswell HD Audio Controller (rev 06)
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation Lynx Point High Definition
Audio Controller (rev 05)
"
running Debian Linux 7.5 amd64 xfce on an Acer Inspire
V3-772G-747a161TBDWakk with the only hardware change from the supplied
congiguration, being a RAM upgrade to 32GB.
The reference to the Realtek soundcard, had come from my searching the
WWW for the specifications of the particular model identifier.
