No Sound... At All

[orientis]

Hey folks, hoping someone here knows what's going on.

I'm running Kali KDE on a HP G71 laptop. There's no sound whatso ever. No sound options at all in System Settings.

Here is the result from running lspci -vv -m -k

I've already installed alsa and run "amixer sset Master unmute"

If anybody can help me, I'm willing to give you my first born child as a personal slave.

The driver is lodaed by kernel:
Device: 00:1b.0
Class: Audio device
Vendor: Intel Corporation
Device: 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller
SVendor: Hewlett-Packard Company
SDevice: Device 306b
Rev: 03
Driver: snd_hda_intel

Try to remove it and then load it again:
modprobe -r snd_hda_intel
modprobe snd_hda_intel

See if it works. Also try to see if volume is muted or volume is set all the way to Low or zero.

Had the same issue, with Kali KDE, removed pulseaudio completely and installed Alsa

It works just fine in gnome 64 and 32 bit architectures.

When I enter "modprobe -r snd_hda_intel" I get
FATAL: Module snd_hda_intel is in use.

Double check this for us. I've seen it where the volume was muted by default and that may be the issue. Since modprobe already stated it was in use.

fixed a no-sound problem with my 3d creative soundcard by adding this above exit 0 in /etc/rc.local :

#!/bin/sh -e
#
# rc.local
#
# This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.
# Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other
# value on error.
#
# In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution
# bits.
#
# By default this script does nothing.
rmmod snd_hda_intel
modprobe snd_hda_intel position_fix=1

exit 0
