I'm using Debian Jessie on dell inspiron. It was working fine earlier. Now, not working at all. 



 lspci|grep Audio


Returns empty.



What could be the problem and how do I fix it? Any pointers will be helpful.

  • If you run into strange issues with a command using grep, the first step is to remove grep and see what lspci shows you: if the audio device really disappeared, or just the string "Audio" vanished. If the device really disappeared, check your BIOS settings; some BIOS can disable audio device(s).

  • Thanks. Audio device was not appearing, not just the string. It's working now.

You should update your pci database:



update-pciids


the manpage man update-pciids:




update-pciids fetches the current version of the pci.ids file from the
primary distribution site and installs it.

  • Thanks! I did. It returned a message saying that it downloaded dailysnapshot. But lspci|grep Audio still returns empty. Just to inform, in Sound settings, "Choose a device for sound output" only shows "Dummy Output". (It was showing same even before update-pciids, and now also).

  • Now it's giving 00:1f.3 Audio device: Intel Corporation Sunrise Point-LP HD Audio (rev 21). Not sure what exactly worked, I did this also - alsactl init
