You could try alsamixer, comes up with a text-GUI (try 'man alsamixer' to get the details) or amixer ('man amixer') for a command-line interface to the alsamixer.

I ran across a weird problem with my Dell laptop where I had lost sound. Well technically I hadn't lost sound, only sound to my speakers. When I plugged in headphones I had sound. I found out that there is a ALSA mixer setting that you can turn off and my speakers worked again.
If headphone work on your machine you can start up alsamixer and then go all the way to the right, I think it was called MM or something like that.

Did you try to display a switch called "External Amplifier" and turn that on? It worked on my Dell Inspiron 1200.

No, MM means that the column in alsamixer display is muted. Hit M and the MM will change to 00 and not be muted. Hitting the up and down arrows will change the level in the column.

You didn't also upgrade to the latest kernel did you? Every time I upgrade to the latest kernel, /etc/modprobe.conf gets hammered & I have to replace it with a backup copy :-(

Oh, I think we are many for whome this happens. For this very reason I do not upgrade the kernel if there is nothing in it I particularly need.

You did upgrade the kernel to kernel-2.6.12-1.1380_FC3 as that is a security update?

Well, thanks for the offer but I doubt it :-( The first reported incident, is the posting below;
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2005-May/msg04057.html
kernel-2.6.11-1.27_FC3 destroyed my sound configuration.
* From: "Erik P. Olsen" <erik epo dk> * To: Fedora Mailing List <fedora-list redhat com> * Subject: kernel-2.6.11-1.27_FC3 destroyed my sound configuration. * Date: Fri, 27 May 2005 23:52:07 +0200
I upgraded my kernel to the subject version on May 24. In that very moment all sound stopped on my system (only the hiss from the fans are still there). I can see that modprobe.conf was also changed at that time. I have restored the previous modprobe.conf but that only allowed alsamixer to work, still no sound so apparently more damage was done.
I assume I have to reinstall/reconfigure alsa, but why did it happen and how can I prevent this from happening next time I upgrade the kernel?

Note, that there was no response to this guy's post :-( Now, the very same thing happened to me. I was fortunate enough to have a backup of /etc/modprobe.conf on a SCO Open Server box attached to my LAN. Overwriting the hammered modprobe.conf with the backup copy worked for me. It's a good thing I had that backup because, I had pushed out that kernel update to ten clients with identical systems & their modprobe.conf file was hammered likewise :-(
taharka
Lexington, Kentucky U.S.A.
Well, with the plethora of messages in the archive, if that is the only one you find where modprobe.conf was corrupted then it does not seem very prevalent an issue.
Personally I have never had that issue on any system I manage.
I understand your concern and am glad you had the backup, but what is unique about your systems that made it happen to you when very few others are reporting this problem? Is someone interrupting the update before it completes the configuration step? Is there something else that interferes? such as maybe the update running and backups starting at the same time, etc.?
Kernel updates seem to take a long time to finish the update. At times I have felt they were hung and have been tempted to kill the power since the system was inaccessible at the time, ( although I never have :-) ) .... but after waiting a long enough time they have always finished for me.

As I stated, this was the first incident. There are more in either July/August.
Personally I have never had that issue on any system I manage.
I understand your concern and am glad you had the backup, but what is unique about your systems that made it happen to you when very few others are reporting this problem?
It's not a concern anymore as it's a given, whenever there's a kernel upgrade, modprobe.conf will have to be overwritten with a backup. I now have a shell script that scp copies the backup to client boxes ;-) Nothing unique here, all systems are PIIs 300 Mhz 384mb RAM & have plain Creative SB-16 sound cards. I do find it odd, that this problem didn't occur on any kernel upgrade prior to kernel-2.6.11-1.27_FC3.
Is someone interrupting the update before it completes the configuration step? Is there something else that interferes? such as maybe the update running and backups starting at the same time, etc.?
I always ensure that, whenever an update takes place, the FC3 box is the only one running.
Kernel updates seem to take a long time to finish the update. At times I have felt they were hung and have been tempted to kill the power since the system was inaccessible at the time, ( although I never have :-) ) .... but after waiting a long enough time they have always finished for me.
I have Ultra DSL 3mbs & kernel updates take 3mins tops :-) The local Telco here is laying fiber down through the neighborhoods of my CTO & we'll be getting 30mbs speeds real soon :-)) Plus TV programing.

I have had this problem as well, mainly with onboard intel sound chips. I have not really looked into the problem yet because they are on workstations here that don't really need sound. They probably changed the name of a sound driver or they have a new driver that replaced the old default that doesn't work right. They did this with some video and scsi drivers and I suspect sound and sata drivers as well.
In any case .. I know other people that read this list have had this problem with their sound as well .. maybe it would help if someone started a new thread and actually posted hardware details :) and what driver was being used ( before and after would be great ) ...
