Ubuntu 18.04 soundcard not detected












0















I was trying to fix the crackling sounds on my thinkpad x1 c6
I ran the following command to reinstall the alsa audio driver. To do that I ran the following commands.
1) Remove the ALSA packages.



sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils


2) Reinstall the same packages.



sudo apt-get install linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils 


Following that Pavucntrol no longer recognizes the speaker or the headphone output and just shows a Dummy output instead.



So far I have tried the following





  1. sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-uname -ralsa-base alsa-firmware-loaders alsa-oss alsa-source alsa-tools alsa-tools-gui alsa-utils alsamixergui



    followed by reboot



    No effect

  6. adding the following lines in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf one at a time by using



    echo "options snd-hda-intel model=auto" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf




or



echo "options snd-hda-intel model=thinkpad" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
