After updating Ubuntu 10.4 even though all sound options are enabled no sound is playing through the built in speakers on my Dell Mini 9

To resolve this problem a file requires editing in the Terminal Window.

To do this follow these instructions :-

    1. Press ALT+CTRL+T to Open the Terminal Window

 

    1. Type –> sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

 

    1. You may need to enter your password then click ok

 

    1. add this at the bottom of the file: \”options snd-hda-intel model=dell\”

 

    1. Click Save, then close the window

 

    1. Type –> exit (to close the Terminal Window)

 

  1. Now Restart your computer
