PulseAudio Does Not Recognize Sound Card

[vinnywright]

your sound module/driver is now broken ,,,,yes/no ?

you could try fixing it ,,,,,,by reinstalling your kernel (linux-image-3.16.0-50-generic and linux-image-extra-3.16.0-50-generic) to replace the things that got removed by your "make install"



then we can go about fixing the origanal problem ,,,,,,that should not have been to hard to fix

Output for "make," errors appear near bottom. The first thing that pops out to me is an issue with function declaration (for 'fget_light'), but I'm not sure what's causing that, where to find the line of code, or how to fix it (or if something bigger is wrong to begin with):

Something might be going wrong in the "make" step, there appears to be an error at the end of the output for that. Would seeing that help?

yes,,,,,,,the error from the "make" would be useful ,,,as if "make did not complete you can not realistically "make install" and expect it to work.

So I went ahead and downloaded Realtek Hd Audio Drivers for Linux and extracted the files. I am coming across errors while compiling the source code. Specifically, when I try:

 make install

after trying:

 
./configure --with-cards=hda-intel

make

I get the following output:

I'm not entirely sure why the listed files are missing. Something might be going wrong in the "make" step, there appears to be an error at the end of the output for that. Would seeing that help? Any advice?

Also, sorry if the formatting here is horrendous, still getting used to conventions; I'll look around to see how others have formatted their posts.

sounds like you have broken your cards driver.. (what you were building in step 3) you should reinstall the system provided one. depending on how your machine is set up (seperate /home) it might be faster to reinstall to fix your sound then check alsa mixer to see if auto mute is turned on .

I am a relatively new user of 14.04 on a Lenovo Y510P.

The saga begins a few months ago, when I noticed that plugging in my headphones to the headphone jack did not disable the computer speakers, as I expected would happen. Sound was emitted from the headphones in addition to the built-in speakers. I searched forums for a fix and found the following article: http://askubuntu.com/questions/15088...s-and-speakers. I attempted to follow the instructions shown in the "Original Solution," but reached a snag halfway through the process. I think something went wrong with step 3; I was left with only "Dummy Output" available as an Output Device on PulseAudio. I did not have the time to attend to this issue until now, a few months after it started, so I apologize for the lack of details regarding where exactly things went wrong - quite simply, I forget. However, I would be happy to provide the output for any and all diagnostic code you would like to run.

I would greatly appreciate having my audio back, and perhaps an explanation of what went wrong as well - I've been using Linux for six months now and hope to add to my skill-set.

Thanks,
- Raj
