Hi.
I had a working F13 system on my Aspire Laptop. I upgraded to F14 off the DVD.
If I boot up and use a F13 kernel, everything is fine. If I boot with the F14 kernel, no sound.
Running the alsamixer shows as if sound is there (the levels jump around), but no sound comes out the speakers. I have checked the alsa mixer to make sure everything is turned up, and stored the settings (alsoctl store 0).
My alsa setup is at http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=80...1fd871a78cefd9
This is on an Aspire 7736Z-4088 running kernel Linux hortlette 2.6.35.6-48.fc14.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Oct 22 15:36:08 UTC 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Any ideas? I'm flummoxed. Like I said, booting into an F13 kernel and everything works fine!
Thanks for any suggestions.

It's possible there is a bug in the alsa interface in the F14 version of the kernel. Changes are being committed all the time, and maybe one of them had a regression.

Your link doesn't work, the ... is not replaced with the actual link address. I assume this was the output of the alsa-info.sh script?

Try running aplay -l, look to see how many sound devices the OS thinks you have. Your symptoms sound like you aren't playing sound where you think you are. If it turns out to be the case that there is more than one sound device, you can fix this by putting something in /etc/modprobe.d or using pavucontrol to assign the sound devices in pulseaudio. Sometimes modems and video cards have components that are interpreted as sound devices, throwing off the placement of sound devices.

Kernel versions for F13 and F14. There were reports of problems with one of the Ubuntu 10.10 kernels that was supposed to be fixed upstream where sound would suddenly 'die'. Same symptoms.

Strange. I had an upgrade set MUTE on the mixer, but the other kernel wouldn't change that.

Do you have pulseaudio installed? if you run pavucontrol is it set to use Digital instead of Analog? I had this same problem and discovered that my sound system was trying to use Digital instead of Analog. Once I changed that with pavucontrol my sound started working again.

When you say sound does not work, do you mean you can't get sound to be heard from any source, CD, web, etc.
What kernel are you using? A recent kernel upgrade made swound work fo me when previously it only worked from a web source,
