I installed Ubuntu studio and tried to make it recognize the audio card m-audio 2496. My efforts caused me to lose my system and now I've done a fresh install and was wondering how I should make the system recognize this card the right way.

I fixed the problem by doing the following process found in this post:

Need external (usb)Sound card suggestions that work with Ubuntu 12.04

In my case, I had just a quite low volume. Other mixers were not showing up.


Try gnome-alsamixer. Here is what I do. I have integrated soundcard and Audigy.

  1. Install Ubuntu Studio (not virtually).
  2. Switch off the integrated soundcard in BIOS.
  3. Launch terminal. Type sudo apt-get install gnome-alsamixer. After the program is installed type gnome-alsamixer.
  4. Select "Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack".
  5. Enjoy

Note: I wrote Select "Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack". You must select analog of your soundcard.
