Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Just reboot the system
2. No sound

Actual Results:  
No sound until I stop alsasound, rm asound.state and restart alsasound (in this order!)

Expected Results:  
Sound working

It's ok with 2.6.25.y

Note that I use the spdif optical output of my card.

Same problem here (was working with kernel 2.6.26, but got the bug when I upgraded to 2.6.26-r1; alsa-utils and alsa-lib are 1.0.17).  The fix (removing /var/lib/alsa/asound.state) worked for me.
Comment 6 Mike Pagano gentoo-dev 2008-08-28 18:07:10 UTC
Amaury,

Did you try removing the /var/lib/alsa/asound.state file?
Comment 7 Mike Pagano gentoo-dev 2008-10-07 19:32:11 UTC
Let us know if the workaround did not solve your problem.
Comment 8 Richard 2008-11-23 16:16:04 UTC
I have just upgraded to 2.6.26-r3 and my sound doesn't work either.

Deleting /var/lib/alsa/asound.state does not solve the issue.


The following is observation. Apologies if it does not help to diagnose this problem:

I noticed some difference between what RTC-related support you are permitted to select in menuconfig for 2.6.25-r7 and 2.6.26-r3. I would have used the same .config ('same' being the closest I can get to the config for the former kernel version by running 'make oldconfig' on it in the source directory for the latter kernel version) with 2.6.26-r3 as I used with 2.6.25-r7 but this was not possible:

grep -i rtc /boot/config-2.6.25-gentoo-r7 | grep -v ^#
CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC=y
CONFIG_RTC=y
CONFIG_SND_RTCTIMER=m
CONFIG_SND_SEQ_RTCTIMER_DEFAULT=y
CONFIG_RTC_LIB=m
CONFIG_RTC_CLASS=m
CONFIG_RTC_INTF_SYSFS=y
CONFIG_RTC_INTF_PROC=y
CONFIG_RTC_INTF_DEV=y

grep -i rtc /boot/config-2.6.26-gentoo-r3 | grep -v ^#
CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC=y
CONFIG_RTC=y
CONFIG_SND_RTCTIMER=m
CONFIG_SND_SEQ_RTCTIMER_DEFAULT=y

I can set 'CONFIG_RTC_LIB=m' and 'CONFIG_RTC_CLASS=m' in the menuconfig for 2.6.26-r3, but doing so causes 'CONFIG_SND_RTCTIMER' and 'CONFIG_SND_SEQ_RTCTIMER_DEFAULT' to disappear from the resulting config file.

Conversely, I could have 'CONFIG_RTC_LIB=m', 'CONFIG_RTC_CLASS=m', 'CONFIG_SND_RTCTIMER=m' and 'CONFIG_SND_SEQ_RTCTIMER_DEFAULT=y' set in the config resulting from running make menuconfig in 2.6.25-r7.
Comment 9 Mike Pagano gentoo-dev 2008-12-07 20:09:33 UTC
Richard, have you tested with a 2.6.27 kernel?
Comment 10 Richard 2008-12-07 20:32:54 UTC
Hi Mike,
Thanks for getting back to me. I haven't tried with gentoo-sources > 2.6.26-r4 since I'm only running stable (amd64).

As I mentioned in comment #8, the logic is different concerning RTC options in the menuconfig for 2.6.26.

Setting, for example, 'CONFIG_RTC_CLASS' to yes causes 'CONFIG_RTC' to be set to no. This in turn disables 'CONFIG_SND_RTCTIMER', which I believe is necessary (along with 'CONFIG_RTC'=yes) in order for my setup to have sound. 

'CONFIG_RTC' and 'CONFIG_SNDRTCTIMER' (and 'CONFIG_SND_SEQ_RTCTIMER_DEFAULT') were not mutually exclusive in 2.6.25-r7 or indeed in any of the following, which I have used with this same hardware:

config-2.6.19-gentoo-r5
config-2.6.22-gentoo-r2
config-2.6.22-gentoo-r5
config-2.6.22-gentoo-r8
config-2.6.22-gentoo-r9
config-2.6.23-gentoo-r3
config-2.6.23-gentoo-r6
config-2.6.23-gentoo-r8
config-2.6.23-gentoo-r9
config-2.6.24-gentoo-r4
config-2.6.24-gentoo-r7
config-2.6.25-gentoo-r6
config-2.6.25-gentoo-r7

This is the first kernel release in literally years which has stopped my sound working.

(In reply to comment #10)
Ignoring for now the RTC stuff which doesn't seem to be specific for
ICE1724 (ESI juli@) but more a "general alsa thingy".

According to http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=481515#91
the problem with "alsactl restore on ICE1724" has been fixed upstream

http://git.alsa-project.org/?p=alsa-utils.git;a=commit;h=8fc2c39dc81f1112a669ca1ad9985d9c0bc92d75
 
I. e. it should be fixed in "alsa-utils-1.0.17" (currently ~arch)
See also: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=227043

@amaury: Can you confirm that the bug is fixed with alsa-utils-1.0.17 ?
Comment 12 Axel Dyks 2008-12-10 12:26:01 UTC
It really doesn't look like a kernel bug. Reassigning ...

I put RTC support back in and there are no RTC issues, but still no sound.
Comment 16 Richard 2008-12-21 14:51:59 UTC
Now alsa-utils-1.0.17 has gone stable on amd64, I've installed it (as part of my usual emerge -uDN world).

I can confirm that I'm still without sound in 2.6.26-r4

Perhaps if I attach my 2.6.25-r7 config and two configs I've tried with 2.6.26-r4 you could look at them and tell me if there is anything visibly wrong.

'config-2.6.26-r4' is the result of a 'make oldconfig' on the 2.6.25-r7 config file.
Booting up the resulting 2.6.26-r4 kernel I'm told that the RTC cannot be accessed. Looking at the kernel config file I can see that some RTC options have been disabled(!!)

So, running 'make menuconfig' and re-enabling SND_RTCTIMER support (and some other RTC options which had been disabled) gives me the file 'config-2.6.26-r4rtc'. Rebuilding the 2.6.26-r4 kernel with this resolves the missing RTC access problem but I still get no sound.

There really weren't any manual changes between my 2.6.25-r7 config and the first 2.6.26-r4 config. Please compare those two files (attached).

Again, this is the first kernel since 2.6.19 in which I have had any sound issues.

I'm really stuck with this problem. I was pinning my hopes on alsa-utils-1.0.17 but it has not helped me.

Richard, this bug is about problems with "snd_ice1724" which you are
obviously (.config) not using.

Please open a separate bug for your problem.
Beside of stating "lastest working" and "earliest failing" kernel
attach your kernel configs and output fropm lspci.

Thanks

... and dmesg output.

I have problem with sound on ESI Juli@ (just bought it)

mixer works, but when I try to play sound, it doesn't.

I tried many version of kernel(mostly gentoo-sources) and alsa-lib combinations.

what I get when I try to play sound:

I figured out where was a problem with my ESI Juli@.
It expecting that sound will be 24bit, so you need to use plughw instead of hw when naming alsa device.
In mixer:
 "Multi Track Rate Locking" must be "off",
 "H/W" and "H/W 1" must be "PCM out"

What is the status of this with latest alsa-utils and kernel?
