fixing sound on ubuntu 8.10 intrepid and dell dimension e520

| January 30th, 2009

First check what version of the sound card you have in your dell:

# grep ‘Codec’ /proc/asound/card0/codec#*

the command should return with “Codec: SigmaTel STAC9227″. If that’s the case add this line to your /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base file:

options snd-hda-intel model=dell-3stack

and reboot.
