After upgrading my Ubuntu laptop to Jaunty (Ubuntu 9.04′s code name) Alpha2 release , I was not able to listen to music for couple of days and I was very much tensed.
Today thought of recompiling the kernel as Volume Manager didn’t give me much options to fiddle with the settings. Luckily I went through launchpad once again to find Question #57928 where in I was pointed to Use Gnome Alsa Mixer to get this issue resolved. That was right, I was sure that I had no issues reported in kernel which is related to SoundCard. Hence it should be related to settings which are hidden at the moment in volume manager. So, I hit the command gnome-alsamixer to find Mute on all output’s. Remove all the mute options and you should be good enough.

There we go to get back music on box. Now, I can get back to studies….
