astor86,

Sound cards are in two pieces. The PCI bit which you have correctly set and te CODEC which transforms the digital signals into the analogue output.
Code:
# CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_ANALOG is not set

That bit is missing from your kernel.

There is another complication
Code:
card 1: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: ALC233 Analog [ALC233 Analog]

Your analogue sound card is not your default sound card, so even when your sound works, it will still need some configuration to use it.

Thanks NeddySeagoon,

I've recompiled my kernel.

This part means that card 0 (the default one) is routed to the HDMI output. And card 1 is routed to the speakers/headphone. If you now take the link krinn put in then you'll see this:
Quote:
Laptops with HDMI audio output

Some laptops with an HDMI audio output will map /proc/asound/card0 as HDMI and therefore makes it default output device for applications as stated above in the Firefox section. Another way to remap is to add these two lines to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf
Code:

# Set this to the correct number of cards.
options snd cards_limit=2

options snd-hda-intel id=PCH index=0
options snd-hda-intel id=HDMI index=1


Verify the order change by checking this command


So you have to edit your /etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf file to force the PCH to be card 0 (set the index to 0) and HDMI as card 1.

No idea about the codec as I never ran into that. But you can choose somewhere when building the kernel which codecs you want/need. You'll need the Analog (Devices) ones.

Hi, thanks for reply. I've added those lines, but still no sound. I cannot understand if I am missing something in the kernel or any configuration file.

Code:
# cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf
# Alsa kernel modules' configuration file.

# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore

##
## IMPORTANT:
## You need to customise this section for your specific sound card(s)
## and then run `update-modules' command.
## Read alsa-driver's INSTALL file in /usr/share/doc for more info.
##
##  ALSA portion
## alias snd-card-0 snd-interwave
## alias snd-card-1 snd-ens1371
##  OSS/Free portion
## alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
## alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1
##

# OSS/Free portion - card #1
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
##  OSS/Free portion - card #2
## alias sound-service-1-0 snd-mixer-oss
## alias sound-service-1-3 snd-pcm-oss
## alias sound-service-1-12 snd-pcm-oss

alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss

# Set this to the correct number of cards.
options snd cards_limit=0
options snd-hda-intel id=PCH index=0
options snd-hda-intel id=HDMI index=1

astor86,

Is your snd_hda_intel a loadable module or built into the kernel?
Does it appear in lsmod?

If its built into the kernel, you need to pass options on the kernel command line.
alsa.conf is on the root filesystem and cannot be read when a built in snd_hda_intel needs it.

See /usr/src/linux/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt

astor86,

I don't see
Code:
snd_hda_codec_analogue
in your lsmod output but you have
Code:
CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_ANALOG=m
in the kernel.

That suggests you are not running the kernel that belongs to your current kenel config. Look at the date in
Code:
$ uname -v
#3 SMP PREEMPT Fri Oct 14 15:59:40 BST 2016

That's the build date/time of the running kernel. Is that before or after you added that option?

Another test ...
Run
Code:
alsamixer -c0
That should show your HDMI sound conrols ... perhaps none at all.
Run
Code:
alsamixer -c1
That will show your analogue replay controls or an error message.

astor86,

Heh. Its working pefectly. Your default card is the analogue card.

Notice the MM at the bottom of the controls in your screen shot.
M means Muted. MM for the left and right stereo channels.
O means Open.
Select the controls and press the 'm' key to toggle the mute switch.

Set the Master and Speaker levels to about 50%
Now unmute just those two channels.

Sit back and enjoy your sounds.
You will need to adjust Master, Speaker and PCM if you get distortion.

Add the alsasound service to the default runlevel, so your mixer settings are preserved across reboots.

A word of warning. Your analogue sound card can do both analogue 44.1kHz and digital 48kHz sample rates, but not both at the same time.
Digital takes priority. Be sure the any controls with IEC or SPDI/F in their names are kept muted.

So should I stick with this configuration?
Code:
$ alsamixer -c1

astor86,

Yes. Just take care when you change mute settings is the mixer and all you get is silence.
Check that no digital controls are unmuted.
