I recently purchased an Intel NUC Laptop and switched it over to Ubuntu (originally 22.04 LTS, and now 22.10 trying to solve this issue). It seems that Ubuntu is not able to find any audio device on this laptop (when it was briefly on Windows 11 it worked), and in the settings it just says "Dummy Output", and no audio will play.

I have tried these solutions and they did not work.

I also ran: inxi -SMA

``` System: Host: nickt-LAPRC710 Kernel: 5.19.0-26-generic arch: x86_64 bits: 64 Desktop: GNOME v: 43.1 Distro: Ubuntu 22.10 (Kinetic Kudu) Machine: Type: Laptop System: Intel Client Systems product: LAPRC710 v: M65781-403 serial: Mobo: Intel model: LAPRC710 v: M65981-402 serial: UEFI: Intel v: RCADL357.0056.2022.0706.1057 date: 07/06/2022 Audio: Device-1: Intel driver: N/A Device-2: Intel Alder Lake PCH-P High Definition Audio driver: sof-audio-pci-intel-tgl Sound Server-1: ALSA v: k5.19.0-26-generic running: yes Sound Server-2: PipeWire v: 0.3.58 running: yes ```

EDIT: re-installed 22.04, re-ran command and got this:

System:
  Host: nickt-LAPRC710 Kernel: 5.15.0-56-generic x86_64 bits: 64
    Desktop: GNOME 42.5 Distro: Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish)

    UEFI: Intel v: RCADL357.0056.2022.0706.1057 date: 07/06/2022
Audio:

  Sound Server-1: ALSA v: k5.15.0-56-generic running: yes
  Sound Server-2: PulseAudio v: 15.99.1 running: yes
  Sound Server-3: PipeWire v: 0.3.48 running: yes

So presumably it's not that the driver is missing?

I noticed that the first audio device has N/A for the driver. Could this be the issue?

EDIT: added output of alsamixer

ALSA lib confmisc.c:855:(parse_card) cannot find card '0'

*I also don't believe the camera is working with Ubuntu either, the "Cheese" application cannot find the camera, if that might be relevant

Update:

Ran alsa-info and got this output:

Thank you!!!

I don't know if this works for you, but it did for me with similar problems. Launch the Volume control, go to Configuration and set the profile to both input and output (mine was set to input only).

I had this same problem, tried everything solution I could find on AskUbuntu, none of them worked for me. Finally upgrading to Ubuntu 23.04 fixed the problem.

After multiple tries suggested on AskUbuntu and others that didn't work for me, I finally found this and it saved me from becoming crazy:

Pulseaudio and alsa might not be correctly installed and suggested executing the commands below.

$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall alsa-base pulseaudio $ sudo alsa force-reload

After reboot everything went back to normal with my sound settings.
