intel_hda_snd device is not showing up in /dev

[augury]

I've install vanilla-sources-3.9.7 and my sound is not working. I think I may have had this problem like 6 months ago because I abandoned a kernel like 3.6.7.

First go around the card had some serious errors in dmesg. These are gone now.

The card shows up first and it is then it is associated with alsa.

/dev/snd shows up. There is a control0 or something. /proc/asound has the hw:0.

What I am missing is the pcm and other snd assosiated devices.

I've built this as a module and into the kernel. I've tryed several kernel options which seemed as if they might help.

I can post output (I'm in a very minimal X and I can't get the carrot into the terminal right now).

If you have media-sound/alsa-utils installed then there is alsa-info script in your system. You should run it with --pastebin option and post the link, whatever your sound problems are.

[augury]

This is a very common sound card architecture. I'm sure there is someone out there who has experienced this problem.

[augury]

bump

[PaulBredbury]

I would try 3.10.1, and also e.g. a Ubuntu LiveCD to see if sound works there.
