PCLOS LXDE is running good and fast, but I have no Audio (Solved)

[Loles]

Hi!
PCLOS LXDE is running good and fast, but I have no Audio. My sound card in Windows had High definition Audio Codecs  and it looks like there is none for PCLOS LXDE. I find no drivers in Synaptic for my sound card. Anyone knows if there is solution for these?
Thanks

Open synaptic, and search for task-pulseaudio.
This will install all required packages.
Now open pcc (PCLinuxOS-Control-Centre) or (Configure Your Computer), go to Hardware > Sound Configuration > Enable pulseaudio, click ok, ok, and reboot.
Works?

That was fast Leiche 

Talk about service

I did what you said Leiche, but did not work
My computer is a Dell xps420 and the only sound card PCLOS LXDE recognizes is the one installed by the ATI Video card installation, but not recognizes the sound card in the computer which is HD Audio Intel card/chip. I don't think Dell will have drivers for Linux based systems
Thanks any way. Perhaps I'll buy an external sound card from Creative? I don't know.
But thanks a lot for your try.

Okay , i have almost the same hardware, and it is here running.

Try again:
Open synaptic and search for task-remove-pulseaudio, install it. It will remove all package, and configuration files.
Reboot.
Now install task-pulseaudio, after it is installed, open pcc, and enable pulseaudio. Reboot, install pavucontrol.
You will pavucontrol find in audio section, what is now happens?

This may not apply in your case.

One of my computers has sound as part of the video card in addition to normal on board sound.

In order to get the sound associated with the video card to work, I had to go into the BIOS and change a couple of settings.

You might want to have a look in your BIOS setup stuff just in case.

Loles, reading your second post I understand you have two sound cards, in BIOS disable the one you don't want.

I had the same problem and that was the solution

No sound, could be due to a lack of the slider available in the volume control/mixer.

I would suggest running   alsamixer   and adjusting all the sliders up to the top, while playing a song.

Of course you first need to ensure the sound is not being sent to the HDMI output of the graphics card.

That is easily managed in pavucontrol 'Playback' tab.

Hi! Thank you Leiche
It finally works fine without pulseaudio.
I went to www.youtube.com and play a song from there and was able to listen to it.
Now i need to know how to mark these topic as (solved).
Thank all of you that were traying to help. i really appreciate your good will.

You go to your first post and Modify .......  and edit the title.

You might also add in the thread how the problem was fixed so others can benefit from the information.

with lxde I always install and use "volumeicon"  it gives much more control and middle mouse click on it gives you the mixer

[daniel]

better is qasmixer... 

[Loles]

Thank you for the suggested mixer control applications

[scoundrel]

we aim to please .. 

[scoundrel]

better is qasmixer... 

there is that road hog .. qasmixer 302.9MB VM against volumeicon 23MB VM ... so personally I would choose volumeicon every time ..
