Which snapshot did you download? It looks as if the driver isn't detecting your codec at all. Is it possible that your audio is disabled in bios? Also, Toshiba's are notorious for their acpi issues. Try rebooting with "acpi=off" on the kernel boot parameters list.
To help us debug this further if the above steps don't work, try recompiling the drivers with "./configure --with-debug=detect --with-cards=hda-intel". Then rebuild and reinstall the drivers, and look at the dmesg log with "dmesg | fgrep ALSA".
Your system "should" show up as a Toshiba with RealTek ALC861 audio codec. The alsa-info.sh listing doesn't show that codec, but does list the subdevice ID.

Tobin, I downloaded and installed alsa-driver, alsa-lib and alsa-utils, but still no sound coming out of those speakers... I ran alsa-info.sh and the results are at http://pastebin.ca/451128 I am clueless as to what to do next, but I m ready to try anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Ben

Try downloading a current daily snapshot from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/alsa/snapshot/ .
There was an issue with the ATI HD Audio detection that was fixed after 14rc3 was released.

Could you download an run http://bulletproof.servebeer.com/alsa/scripts/alsa-info.sh , then post the resulting link? This will help determine what setup you have.

Hi I have a toshiba A100 (see attached file lspci-nnv) with a ATI SB450. Sound worked fine with kernel 2.6.17 and alsa 1.0.12rc1 (ubuntu edgy). I just did a fresh install of ubuntu feisty (kernel 2.6.20, alsa 1.0.14rc1) and the only mixer settings available are those of the modem, named off-hook and caller-id (see output of amixer, aplay -l , and the rest in attached file output_feisty) I decided to upgrade alsa-driver and alsa-lib to 1.0.14rc2. after downloading the package, I unloaded all sound related modules (everything with "snd_" in it) in the right order and did: ./configure --with-oss=yes --with-cards=hda-intel;make; sudo make install; sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel A minor improvement: the mixer now shows controls for both the modem and the sound card (see output_after_upgrade_to_rc2), but unfortunately, there is still no sound coming out of those speakers (even though alsamixer shows control for PCM and the rest...). Finally, I downloaded alsa-driver-1.0.14rc3 and gave it a shot. This time again, only modem related settings appeared in alsamixer, and no sound card stuff (see aplay and amixer in output_after_upgrade_to_rc3), and no sound either. Does anyone know how to get some sound out of these speakers (given that it used to work with alsa1.0.12rc1...) ? Thanks for your help Ben
