[merric...@gmail.com]

I'm getting the same problem. I'm using an Alienware Alpha, which has an NVIDIA GPU and an Intel i5 Processor. I also installed Remix OS to my hard drive.

[Garrett P]

same issue here

[Jim Brown]

Same for me with HP Pavilion mini 300. Sound volume is adjustable but no sound at all.

[justints...@gmail.com]

i got my bluethooth headphones to work, but otherwise i have no device sound.

[SuperSparklez]

I have the same problem but on a different device. Using a Linx1010.

[brend...@gmail.com]

No sound for me also! This seems a common issue! Everything else works 100%

[gary.l...@gmail.com]

Same ASUS T100

[shen li]

same as in ASUS C300, hope the team could see it is common question.

[이대영]

I have same issue on Lenove Miix 700(M5). Sound device looks fine but no sound.

Have sound but not through hdmi

[lee.j...@gmail.com]

Same here Dell i7359 Intel HD audio, headphone jack silent, bluetooth audio fine (though listening to Spotify and browsing Facebook causes sound on Spotify to get louder while Facebook notification sounds are playing).

[Lawrence Patricio]

This issue is odd for me. I have two laptops. One is a newer Acer E1-471 and another is an older one Sony VAIO VGN-TT36MD_B.

Both are running Windows 10 64-bit, same build. I installed (dual-boot) Remix OS using the same 64-bit installer on both laptops. On Acer Aspire, sound via built-in speakers is working perfectly. But on my Sony VAIO, sound via built-in speakers is not working. Sound via headphone does work.

It is odd for me because both laptops have Realtek High Definition Audio (as seen by device manager on Windows 10).

Can someone please enlighten me?

[Lee Jordan]

Do you guys have HDMI out? In my case I suspect that the audio might be going out on HDMI instead of my audio jack? I haven't tested it yet but my monitor does have a 3.5mm jack on it and should be able to capture sound via HDMI. If that's the case I wonder if a setting could be made in the control panel to choose which audio device the driver uses by default? Again a bluetooth device works and even video is in sync over BT.

[Lee Jordan]

Well so I tried my jack on the HDMI connection on the monitor and no joy, no sound ... but pleased to report hooking up a USB soundcard (By 'StarTech') to my Laptop actually did work for getting sound from Remiix. Maybe the Intel HD audio driver is missing or having issues in Remix? I will stick with this configuration as I can toggle the USB hub (Keyboard, Mouse, Sound) between my any laptop that is on my laptop stand and the PC that is my DVR and and file server.

I can only think to advise playing with a rooted remix and seeing if Alsa Mixer can work, there are command line options too that involve 'set PCM 100'. See here for some helpful info on ALSA ... http://grokbase.com/t/gg/android-x86/145cy08bet/how-to-set-alsa-amixer-during-boot-and-how-to-get-the-camera-to-work

[Augusto Ícaro Farias da Cunha]

So guys, I had this problem in my notebook when I perform a hard disk install... In my case I solve including the provide module in grub( I use grub to manage my operate systems )( If you use windows bootloader, I cant help you ).

In original grub provided by remix os installer, they the load ntfs and ext modules, so I put then in right place and my sound working like a charm :)

Later I will post the module's names and answer any questions about it

[Mateusz Raczyński]

Intel soundcards aren't supported yet when i plug external USB card from Conrad sound Playing normally

[cristiand...@gmail.com]

Do you have any specific info on the module?

[osbornelectr...@gmail.com]

Im on optiplex 760 , had this issue for a little bit but seem'd to work its self out, also having some apps not load but 20-30 mins later id try again and they do.Beta?

[Augusto Ícaro Farias da Cunha]

So guys, as I said, there my audio info of my notebook:

I use a linux environment, and typed lspci in terminal, my audio card is: 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C210 Series Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 04).

To enable audio to intel audio cards you need put the modules(exfat64.mo and ntfs64.mod) in right place(in my case, /efi/RemixOS), and configure grub correctly like this:

menuentry 'Remix OS' --class android-x86 {

    set root='(hd0,11)'

    insmod /efi/RemixOS/exfat64.mod

    insmod /efi/RemixOS/ntfs64.mod

linuxefi /RemixOS/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_x86_64 androidboot.selinux=permissive DATA= SRC=RemixOS CREATE_DATA_IMG=1

initrdefi /RemixOS/initrd.img

}

To find what put in set root, in grub you need to enter in cosole mode and type "ls", so it will list all hds and partitions like this (hd0,1). But if you know wich partition and hd your remixOS was installed, put like this (hdx,y), where x is hd number(starts in 0) and y is partition number(starts in 0).

You also can add the flag "quiet" to skip initialization messages.

I did this, and my sound works like a charm :)

[Augusto Ícaro Farias da Cunha]

In alpha version the sound works well when I used via usb sticker. In Beta, sound still works via usb sticker, but when I performed the hdd installation the sound problem appeared.

[이대영]

Hi Guys!.  My Miix 700 has sound now but only through Bluetooth headset. Internal speaker and audio jack still has problem.

[Augusto Ícaro Farias da Cunha]

Did you try my grub modification suggestion?

[DY Lee]

this a first time that i install remix OS. i don't know how i can edit grub. can you help me for more detail information to edit it step by step?

[Augusto Ícaro Farias da Cunha]

Yes, of course! How operational system you use? Your remix OS was installed on HDD or you use in usb stick?

[SuperSparklez]

Where are you getting the "exfat64.mod" and "ntfs64.mod" modules?

[Augusto Ícaro Farias da Cunha]

In Remix OS .iso file go to this location: "/efi/RemixOS" there are the 2 modules that I said.

[DY Lee]

Hi Augusto.

in my case, All the files are located in C:\RemixOS\efi\boot folder including grub.cfg, exfat64.mod and ntfs64.mod.

[Augusto Ícaro Farias da Cunha]

I answer your email, in that case, change the insmod line to insmod  /RemixOS/efi/boot/exfat64.mod and the same idea in other line :)

[Nate]

Augusto-

I have the same set up and problem that DY Lee had. Can you email more detailed instructions as you seemed to help DY Lee out.

[Augusto Ícaro Farias da Cunha]

Of Course Nate,

Send me a email with your grub config, the remix os folder location and a photo of your partitions distribution. Also describe your scenario, if you use linux or windows, if remix os was installed in a exclusive partition, and which folder the modules was.

Thanks.

[小羅奶黃包]

I think it is not the main issue. I have tried on my Miix 700 and check ntfs64.mod and exfat64.mod already loaded on system.

I also tried on my Surface 3 and no sound, too.

Surface 3 : Intel audio device => no sound.

Miix 700 : Realtek audio device => no sound.

[Augusto Ícaro Farias da Cunha]

You are right. I change my installation few days ago and today I tested boot without the module grub line and the sound works perfect. I think this is caused by androidx86 instalation method describrd as folllow in androidx86 install method

So guys, could you try this method and test if sound is ok?

Download rooted remixOS in XDA forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/remix/remix-os/remixosforpc-deodexed-pre-rooted-t3299573

Follow this guide to androidx86 install method and unlimited storage space(= your partition)(Try install in a exclusive partition ext4): https://groups.google.com/forum/#!starred/remix-os-for-pc/GTYz-uxApK4

If you have any question about the process please ask :)

[hova 888]

Me to not sounds HDMI TV, Intel hd4000(((

[hova 888]

I try, my install in ext4 not sound(((

[Augusto Ícaro Farias da Cunha]

Like in tutorial? with install=1 and degub= on grub?

[Augusto Ícaro Farias da Cunha]

With the .iso downloaded from XDA?

[hova 888]

Yes

[hova 888]

i install - http://forum.xda-developers.com/remix/remix-os/remix-os-installation-rooting-t3293769

[hova 888]

I install like you link u drop, not help me(INSTALL=1)

[Augusto Ícaro Farias da Cunha]

Really strange this situation. In my case in alpha build on usb stick sound works, in beta 2.0.102 build on hdd with remix installer method sound not work without module and in beta 2.0.202 build rooted(XDA) on hdd with androidx86 installer method sound works.

[hova 888]

I install like u,creat USB stick...Install-1 ... System work,but sound HDMI not working(((

[小羅奶黃包]

My device is miix 700. Audio Device is Realtek HDA ALC236.

I have tried other android x86 (module kernel 4.1.20 x86_64) and that sound is working. (I upload lsmod in attachment.)

In Remix OS(module kernel 4.4.6 x86_64), I saw that snd-hda-codec-generic and snd-hda-codec-realtek are not on lsmod. I can manual modprobe snd-hda-codec-generic and snd-hda-codec-realtek but still no sound.

If I want to copy sound module kernel from 4.1.20 to 4.4.6, which files should be coied?

Or anyone know how to fix it?

[Augusto Ícaro Farias da Cunha]

Good question, could you provide me a link to your android x86 image? I can try search the modules for you.

[小羅奶黃包]

This image is from Android-x86 group with this article: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-x86/EQR7dqArcXg

[Augusto Ícaro Farias da Cunha]

Thanks, I found the modules place :)

"/lib/modules/4.1.20-android-x86_64+" in system.img, to get this file you need:

1 - Mount or extract cm .iso file, in my casa I mounted: mount cm_android_x86_mesa-11.3-devel_gapps_kernel-4120x64v2.iso -o loop tempFolder1/

2 - Mount the system.sfs file: mount tempFolder1/system.sfs -t squashfs -o loop tempFolder2/

3 - Finnally mount system.iso file: mount tempFolder2/system.img  -o loop tempFolder3/

After that, go to folder( "/lib/modules/4.1.20-android-x86_64+" )and search for your module.

In this folder there a some important files that I think they need to be changed in case add some modules(You will probably do in remixOS modules folder). 

[小羅奶黃包]

I know how to mount and extract img files and module path. But in my case, I copied /kernel/sound/pci/hda/ folder from 4.1.20 kernel to replace to remix os and set chmod. It was also failed. When I manual mpdprobe it said "invalid format". Maybe some files is needed but I didn't copy. I can't copied all module files because 4.1.20 is not supported the touch screen, wifi and bluetooth. Just want to port sound driver. Need help.

[Augusto Ícaro Farias da Cunha]

Tell me the files that you need copy of cm kernel, are all files in: "/kernel/sound/pci/hda/ folder"?
I will try add in my kernel tonight and give you a feedback.

[nidh...@gmail.com]

No sound in DELL 3158

[Marcus Fazzi]

Same problem, no sound at Dell Inspiron 13 - 7359

Wi-fi works changing firmware files

[Marcus Fazzi]

I got a solution on my Dell Inspiron 13 - 7359 ...
I using Android x86_64 6.0.1 rc1
Sound Card: HDA Intel Conexant CX20722 (rev 21)
Android is installed to a ext4 filesystem 

Just add acpi=noirq to the end of kernel params...

My grub entry:

menuentry 'Android-x86 6.0.1 rc1' --class android-x86 {

        insmod gzio

        insmod part_gpt

        insmod ext2

        set root='hd0,gpt5'

        linux /kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=android_x86_64 quiet DATA=/data.img acpi=noirq

        initrd /initrd.img

}

[marvine...@gmail.com]

can it work on realtek audio drivers.

[marvine...@gmail.com]

Hey, I got the audio to work by adding acpi=noirq in grub. However wifi stopped working. If I remove acpi=noirq ,, wifi works again but no sound.

[smk...@gmail.com]

Any news about this one the Miix 700?

[bj...@bjorncarlsson.com]

No audio on Asus ux305ca.
Everything alse seems to work perfect.

[nsk...@fsn.co.kr]

With normal boot on Miix 700, I got this message and sound is not working(everything else is working and I can hear the sound using bluetooth)

platform MSFT0101:00: failed to claim resource 1

acpi MSFT0101:00: platform device creation failed: -16

mmc0: Unknown controller version (3). You may experience problems

When I add "acpi=noirq" in grub, the booting process stops with this message(last two line is added with "acpi=noirq").

platform MSFT0101:00: failed to claim resource 1

acpi MSFT0101:00: platform device creation failed: -16

[gordo...@gmail.com]

OK so I've tried everything suggested here and I still can't sound through HDMI on my external GPU. I don't understand why. Every other os recognizes and uses HDMI for sound but I try and run any version of Android x86 and it doesn't work. I type lsmod in root terminal and it shows the Radeon driver as being loaded but it also shows an Intel codec/driver as being there too. I'm wondering if it's some sort of driver conflict? And any other Linux distribution uses the Radeon driver just fine and HDMI works so what am I missing? I can't even select the output manually through alsa as it comes back as an invalid card even though it's recognized as an output... Hug?? I'm stumped..

[smk...@gmail.com]

Update on my LEnovo miix 700:

The latest version of Android x86  , version 6.0-rc2 released on 15-8-2016, has audio working perfectly!

Too bad HD and usb mounting isn't working for me, and no auto-rotation.

Maybe Jide developers can see how to make this wor on RemixOS too!!!

I downloaded it from here:

[ghulama...@gmail.com]

Hi Bro, In my case the audio driver is same .. Conexant Audio ......Can u tell me the procedure to fix this... Please reply . I M in a big problem..  Please Reply the Solution as fast as possible. I ll be very thankful to you.

[pluss...@gmail.com]

I have an Asus Essentio i7 with Remix installed on the hard drive. I only have sound output from the the audio out on headphone jacks. Nothing on HDMI and there appears to be no way to access settings to make adjustments.

[mkado...@gmail.com]

how you made the bluetooth to work? in my case bluetooth shows up and then automatically turn off
