I am new on Linux, running Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS without other OS. I found out that my output audio is dummy and no analog sound card had found. I'm not sure what is the cause. These are command output :

$ alsamixer

$ pavucontrol

I have tried :

...and other suggestions that I had found and I even couldn't remember the links, but still not works.

Also I couldn't access Advanced Tab on BIOS to see if my sound card had been disable accidentally since manufacture hide/ disable it.

Please kindly help me.

Your answer would be highly appreciated.

Access to the BIOS is a hardware issue and not related to Ubuntu or to any OS for that matter. See the manufactures documentation for your PC or contact their support.

Look at `sudo lshw --class audio` and find your sound in system startup logs `sudo journalctl -b 0`

@waltinator there's statement with red colour said : x86/cpu: SGX disabled by BIOS. Is it the problem?

@David I have contact them to check sound card availabity but they say unfortunately couldn't unhide Advanced Tab on BIOS :(

@waltinator Noted. So related to your code, what should I put attention and what should I do to fix it. Thanks.

So, after not following any of my suggestions, you now want more suggestions?

@waltinator I do following your suggestions. Result of cod $sudo lshw --class audio I had put on edited question and for $sudo journalctl - b 0 there're long logs that I couldn't understand, that's why later I'm asking you what kind of logs that I must put attention since I'm new on Linux.

I should have suggested ` sudo lshw --class sound` As for the log entries, they are to be read one-by-one. You can see how your system discovers the current system hardware, including your sound hardware.

@waltinator thank you for your swift response, but I still don't know how to fix my issue

Same issue with Xubuntu 23.04 on my Minis Forum GK41. I've try a lot of solution for a day and finally resolved wit this link: https://www.linuxuprising.com/2018/06/fix-no-sound-dummy-output-issue-in.html

Basically you need to edit two files like explained in the second part of the guide.

Edit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf as root and add options snd-hda-intel dmic_detect=0 at the end of this file.
Edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf as root and add blacklist snd_soc_skl at the end of the file.
After making these changes, reboot your system.

To be precise now the Audio Output works with HDMI, still can't use my audio jack, but hey... that was what I need!

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
