I am not able to get any sound. I tried a few approaches suggested here itself like this one. However I was unable to solve the problem. On trying to play a song using aplay -D plughw:0 some_file.wav, I could not hear anything. I opened alsamixer and everything looked fine there.alsamixer dashboard
On trying to select the sound card by pressing f6, I got only one option there(which I am assuming is the default itself). alsamixer sound cards.



Need help in understanding what is causing this sound issue.
