No Sound in ASUS ZenBook 14 UX433FN after installing ubuntu 18.04












2














I recently bought ASUS ZenBook 14 UX433FN which came with preloaded Windows 10 Home. I used it for a few days and everything was working perfectly fine. Then I uninstalled Win 10 and installed Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. And I could hear no sound. I tried many things found online but nothing worked. I tried installing 16.04 LTS as well but the same problem showed up. Unlike reported by many it doesn't show dummy output as audio output.What should I do?

          It seems like there is a patch for the linux kernel comming in to fix the problem soon.



          https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1022579/



          So I think the two options you have is wait for the patch to hit mainline kernel, or to replace it yourself (disclaimer, I haven't done that yet myself)

            Try reinstalling Alsa and Pulse Audio



            sudo apt-get remove --purge alsa-base pulseaudio
            sudo apt-get install alsa-base pulseaudio


            and then force reload alsa



            sudo alsa force-reload


            You may also install PulseAudio Volume Control to control both the volume of hardware devices and of each playback stream separately.



            sudo apt-get install pavucontrol
