Audio device no longer automatically configured after 18.04 to 18:10 update
The chipset audio device is no longer automatically configured on reboot; it worked okay until update from 18.04 to 18.10. Forcing alsa to reload fixes it, but only until the next boot.
The device (as reported by lspci) is:
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 05)
But the corresponding alsa device isn't created. After boot, pactl list | grep -A2 'Sink #' shows:
Sink #0
State: SUSPENDED
Name: auto_null
Forcing alsa to reload (with sudo alsa force-reload) makes the device appear and work normally - that same command now shows:
Sink #1
State: SUSPENDED
Name: alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo
The device is properly detected and configured if the system is booted of USB install media. So presumably the problem is some vestage of the 18.04 config that is messing up under 18.10.
I've purged alsa's config with:
sudo apt-get remove --purge alsa-base pulseaudio
sudo apt-get install alsa-base pulseaudio
Which didn't fix the problem.
I don't have a ~/.asoundrc
Some askubuntu answers on similar-sounding issues suggest editing /etc/default/speech-dispatcher, but that doesn't exist (and creating it with RUN=no doesn't help either.
Others suggest (re)installing the Intel chipset sound driver kernel module (with sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel) which also doesn't address the issue.
