Lewis, Take a look at this link (and others that you can find by searching the web for your sound card and sound card chip) http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Tech/Audio You need to ensure that you have loaded and are using the correct sound modules for your sound card chip and your sound card controller. First, find out what modules you have and try to find out what modules you should have. Then, use the correct modules. Shell command to list modules: lsmod Shell command to add modules: modprobe <module> If you do not have the module needed, you may need to build it. That is more complicated, so ask the list about how to do that once you find the correct modules for your system. :

I get no sound using OpenSuse 10.3 on an HP Pavillion DV9825 laptop. The sound works under Vista. There is a touch switch above the keyboard that mutes the sound output. When muted, it turns orange; otherwise it is blue. When SuSe is loading, the switch starts out blue, then turns orange. Touching it thereafter does not change it back to blue. Any suggestions?
Further information: 1. I think the switch turns orange at the same point the following appears in the startup log:
<7>ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:2333: autoconfig: line_outs=1 (0x14/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0) <7>ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:2337: speaker_outs=0 (0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0) <7>ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:2341: hp_outs=1 (0x15/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0) <7>ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:2349: inputs: mic=0x18, fmic=0x19, line=0x0, fline=0x0, cd=0x0, aux=0x0
2. The sound card is listed as "82801H (ICH8 Family) Audio Controller", snd-card-0, driver snd-hda-intel. Options: position_fix = 0, single_card = 0, model = blank.
Help is appreciated, as I purchased this computer specifically to do an audio project!
