Hi, I just did a fresh install of Debian unstable on a P8Z68-V
motherboard. I installed debian with the kde-plasma-desktop package.


I get no sound.

When I log in there is a message (in danish, translated) HDA Intel PCH
(ALC892 Analog) doesn't work. Falling back to default. I have tried
testing a few of the other posibilities in the list of sound outputs in
KDE but none work.


User IS a member of the audio group. (This is always true in the default
installation..)

The default volume in KDE is 0%, try turning it up, if you've not done
so already.

This error is non fatal. IOW, sound should still work. To avoid the
warning, load "System Settings", go to 'Multimedia' -> 'phonon' and
reorder cards until you get the right one on top. Easiest is probably
to have "default" up there.

Finally, click on the speaker icon in the System Tray and select mixer.
From there you can increase anything at zero volume or unmute things
until sound levels for each input are as desired.

That works. Strange. I was sure I tried that.

Thanks.

You need a more frequent RAM refresh. :-)

YW. Glad it's sorted.
