Here is my latest information from my Debian fight:

gallium OS (Ubuntu derivative) has made sound working on this computer, hence I've checked its setup; they use max98090 driver for sound-card. To accommodate these driver I have made following changes to /etc/modprobe.d/audio.conf (it is identical with gallium OS):

Code: Select all

    options snd_soc_max98090 index=0
    options snd_hda_intel index=1

Also I have checked loaded drivers:
Debian:

Code: Select all

snd_soc_max98090 98304 0 - Live 0xffffffffc07dd000
 snd_soc_core 212992 2 snd_soc_sst_mfld_platform,snd_soc_max98090, Live 0xffffffffc07f8000
 snd_pcm 110592 7 snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_soc_sst_mfld_platform,snd_soc_max98090,snd_soc_core,snd_hda_intel,snd_hd    a_codec,snd_hda_core, Live 0xffffffffc040d000
gallium:

Code: Select all

snd_soc_sst_byt_max98090_mach 16384 3 - Live 0xffffffffc08f6000
 snd_soc_max98090 98304 1 - Live 0xffffffffc08ca000
 snd_soc_core 212992 3 snd_soc_sst_baytrail_pcm,snd_soc_sst_byt_max98090_mach,snd_soc_max98090, Live 0xffffffffc0    87c000
 snd_pcm 110592 9 snd_soc_sst_baytrail_pcm,snd_soc_max98090,snd_hda_codec_hdmi,snd_soc_core,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda    _codec,snd_hda_core,snd_pcm_oss,snd_pcm_dmaengine, Live 0xffffffffc06c1000
It is still not working. I would appreciate if someone can point out some new direction to check. I would appreciate any help.
