First off I had installed Freya days before Loki was official. Loved it everything ran great. I decided to try Loki and had absolutely no output devices for sound. After a while, I decided I liked Freya (since sound worked immediately) and now I have reinstalled Freya and updated it. But still no output devices for audio. It is an HP Pavilion g120cy with B&O audio. Please help.

Are you dual booting with Windows? If so, the following steps may help:
- Shut down your computer.
- Boot into elementary OS.
- Restart, and boot into elementary OS again.
After booting into Windows on my XPS 13, I have to follow these steps to get sound working on eOS. For details on why this problem occurs, see the XPS 13 page in the Arch Wiki.

Nope, no dual booting. After installing Freya the first time I went straight for it. I am used to Ubuntu and mint so I am familiar with Linux in general this one has me stumped because my original install worked fine.– JimiCommented Sep 14, 2016 at 19:54
