	OK guys lets find out what the problem is. We need to find 
out what your computer is using for sound. You do this in a 
Terminal. In the terminal type lspci and the line showing the 
sound will look like mine:

01:05.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc RS780 Azalia controller

	To learn more about the device, in my case I would go to 
Google and put in "ATI Technologies RS780" and you will gt a 
thousand web pages. Look for one that has Ubuntu mentioned. 
Your problem may be explained there.
