My pc is Dell Latitude E5470 and the original system version is 14.04LTS. When I upgraded to 16.04LTS, I could't hear voice. The following are pictures about my pc sound setting:

Can someone tell me what's the cause? Thank you!

  • I am trying to fix a very similar issue http://askubuntu.com/questions/859849/no-sound-from-laptop-speakers-after-ubuntu-suspension. All I can say for the moment is that forcing shutdown (hold the power button) and restart seem to temporarily fix the problem. – Py-ser Dec 20 '16 at 11:59
  • I did as you said,but it‘s still not working. BTW, my sys is UEFI booted. – louis lau Dec 21 '16 at 01:44

I found something that worked for me with the same problem.

Go to System settings --> Software & Updates --> Additional drivers

When it shows you all drivers, in my case I had one checked from Intel Corporation: switch it off, by checking Do not use this device (or something similar).

Then reboot.

It worked for me with a 16.04 version.
