Intrepid Sound Problems

[Karl Larsen]

    I did a search today to try and get sound back on my new Intrepid. I 
see this is a MAJOR problem and there are 25 web pages full of 
mis-information.

    First, the sound was perfect yesterday. Turned off the laptop and 
this morning when it booted up the little speaker's had a red X over 
them. I cleared that by right clicking and setting it right. No idea how 
it got changed.

    I tried the w32codecs which was worthless, turned of PulseAudio 
worthless, and began to wonder what is going on.

    I did get some drivers for Firefox to view U-Tube things and tried 
to install a special driver that apt-get could not find which was 
supposed to fix the sound problem. I will continue to Google but will 
avoid all bug reports because they are VERY confusing.
