Problem:

  • After installing Linux on a Sony VAIO VPCEC1M1E, the sound card is recognized correctly but the sound does not work.

Solution:

  • This is a known bug. For more details, see [1].
  • To solve this issue, you have to modify a sound card key using hda-analyzer [2].
  • Get the basic run.py script:
wget -O run.py http://www.alsa-project.org/hda-analyzer.py
  • Execute it:
python run.py
  • Go to Node[0x19] PIN (left hand side pane) -> Widget Control (right hand side pane) -> change the value of VREF to HIZ.
