I have bought this Dell Latitude 3510 with Ubuntu 18.04 Pre-installed. After 6 days of purchase I am having issues in audio output. I have installed software of what I need for my works. Idk which software cause this issue but my audio on the device isn't working. It was working till 5th day but not working now. I visited the dealer who sold me this laptop, but they don't have engineers who can work with Ubuntu :(

On board Audio is not working however, if any device attached with Bluetooth, it works.

enter image description here

I tried following this solution but it didn't work for me. dummy output no sound.

Can anyone please help me? I don't want to re install Ubuntu or do anything that will harm my data.

The possible sources of the problem are quite a few. One possibility (perhaps my first guess) is a drivers issue. To begin with, you should post the output of some commands to start diagnosis. Check Only "Dummy output" (sound) in Ubuntu 20.04 after reboot - Broken driver / module

Post the output (or any other observation you consider relevant) of

$ uname -a
$ cat /proc/asound/cards
$ dpkg -L linux-modules-$(uname -r)-generic | grep snd
$ inxi -SA
$ lspci -nnk | grep -n -A 4 Audio
$ aplay -l
$ sudo lshw -C multimedia
$ dpkg -l | grep alsa
$ sudo alsa force-reload

As a first guess, try installing and then reboot

$ sudo apt-get install linux-modules-extra-$(uname -r)
