I have installed Ubuntu 7.04 on my AMD machine. Its running on a Asus A8N-VM motherboard with a nforce chipset. The audio is NVidia MCP51 onboad sound (rev 2). On the ALSA docs page the driver is given as intel8x0. However when i compile alsa with intel8x0 the sound fails completely. When i compile it using the hda-intel driver sound only play through the right front right rear and center channels. I have 5.1 speakers where the front jack is in the normal green port. The other two(center/woofer and rear ) in the line in and mic jack resp. On windows Sound Max configures these port to work as a 6ch sound. On linux all the channels are unmuted and full. Also when i am playing a track on Banshee / Rythmbox and tweak with aslamixer - sound dies down and dosent work untill reboot. All system sounds also go ( no the channels are still unumuted and full )
Ubuntu has worked like a charm before and i wish to continue using it, however I love listening to music and this is a major obstacle. Please help me out. I have tried reinstalling alsa(latest drivers) also.
