I have some application that needs sound card support, and I'm using a ec2 ubuntu. Can anyone advise how to install something like snd-dummy?

EC2 AMIs use aws ubuntu kernel modules instead of the ubuntu generic modules, which omits alsa sound drivers

snd-dummy and other alsa drivers were added to the linux-modules-extras for Ubuntu Jammy (22.04).

So you will need to use a base ami with this version of ubuntu or later.

To install the extra modules you can run this command:

apt install linux-modules-extra-`uname -r`

After that you can do modprob and modinfo on snd-dummy
