Summary: No Sound on Acer with Intel ICH6 HDA and Realtek
ALC260
Description:
I can load the snd-hda-intel module and play a file via aplay or xmms or
play a cd without any error, but I cannot hear anything neither via the
build-in speakers nor via headphones. All volume controllers are at 70%
and unmuted, except for PCM, because there is no mute/unmute-button.
