[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#747374: alsa-base: No audio after upgrade of Jessie

[John Haiducek]

Package: alsa-base
Version: 1.0.25+3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I performed a dist-upgrade and rebooted, after which I had no audio output.

I tried shutting down pulseaudio, and manually selecting hardware devices using
aplay. Neither worked; I got no audio in either case.

Pulseaudio detects only one device: "Digital Output (S/PDIF) - Built-in Audio."

aplay -l lists the following:
