install Intel Corporation NM10/ICH7 Family High Definition Audio Controller in Linux Mint Debian Edition 6


I need to install the Intel Corporation NM10/ICH7 Family High Definition Audio drivers in LMDE6 since sometimes it takes them but other times it appears as Dummy Output and nothing is heard

Those drivers are almost certainly already installed. The configuration is probably picking the wrong output for default use, such as HDMI while you have external speakers connected via pin jack, or plughw while you expect sound out via HDMI. Try various aplay options to see that sound can work using a specified output:
Code:
paplay some-sound-file
man paplay
mpv some-sound-file
man mpv
aplay some-sound-file
aplay -D hdmi some-sound-file
aplay -D hdmi:0,0 some-sound-file
aplay -D hdmi:1,0 some-sound-file
aplay -D plughw some-sound-file
aplay -D plughw:0,0 some-sound-file
aplay -D plughw:1,0 some-sound-file
man aplay
Lots of tools out there to help figure out the rats nest that is sound on Linux:
  • wpctl status
  • aplay -lL
  • pw-cli list-objects Device
  • pw-cli list-objects Node
  • alsa-info.sh
  • alsactl info
  • pactl list cards
  • pactl list sinks
  • many others
