I play a video. It pops up a message and the video could not play.
The message is :
Code:
The audio playback device [b]HDA Intel(ALC269VB Analog)[/b] does not work.
          Falling back to [b]defautl[/b]


I don't know what it means by default. There is no sound indeed .
I checked the forum , found this:https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-875951-start-0.html


It tells me that I should build the snd_hda_intel as a module and modprobe it with
a model.

My model is :
Code:
ALC269
======
  laptop-amic   Laptops with analog-mic input
  laptop-dmic   Laptops with digital-mic input

(from: /usr/src/linux/Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio-Models.txt under ALC269)

But when I execute : modprobe -r snd_hda_intel, it gives a fatal: module snd_hda_intel is in use.

So how can I do with it ?

You need to specify the module arguments to give when the module is first loaded at boot time. Try adding the following lines to your /etc/conf.d/modules file:
Code:
modules="snd_hda_intel"
module_snd_hda_intel_args="laptop-amic"

When you next reboot, the module autoloader will automatically append the model argument when loading the module.

Hi, AdmiralNemo



I did as you said... But it still could not solve my problem.

I think the way to solve the problem is to find out why it falls back to default , what does default mean?

The thread I quoted is slightly diffrenet from my situation. So the solution may not fit exactly
into mine.

"default" is the PCM named "default", the standard stereo output.

Useful debugging info:
Code:
wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh
bash alsa-info.sh --upload

Then show us the URL that the script shows at the end.

Err, KDE, right?
Go to systemsettings->Multimedia->Phonon
and prefer "default" for every entry on the left (Music/Video/...)

I was able to reproduce this on my machine, and it turned out to have nothing to do with either kernel module configuration or ALSA. It looks like the default configuration gstreamer doesn't have any sink backend. Check your gst-plugins-meta package and make sure either it has one of alsa, oss, or pulseaudio USE flags set.

Does your sound work again? I've got the same problem with the same device. It used to work and I can't recapitulate when it stopped working and when.

-> Just set alsa globally and recompile with --newuse flag

emerge alsa-utils also

dont forget to unmute or volume up sound :D

maybe it can eventually help:
in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

Add this line:
options snd-hda-intel model=acer-aspire position_fix=1

Save the new file and reboot then test. If it isn't solved try just:
options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1
