My installation of elementary OS does not detect my sound card. I suspect this is related to an incompatibility between my kernel and ALSA. Below I have attached the output of the commands in Step 3 of
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure#Step_4
I hope someone can give me an hint on what to do ... I really appreciate your help!
Best Mattia
