Bug Description

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.22-14-generic

Sound works as per normal with linux-image-2.6.22-10, but is very faint with -11 (just audible with headphones, almost completely inaudible with build in speakers). Sound still not at normal volumes as of 2.6.22-14.

Hi Tim,

Can you try installing the 'linux-backports-modules' package and see if this helps? Thanks.
