Realtek PCIe FE / GbE / 2.5GbE / Gaming Family Controller Software Quick Download Link Realtek USB FE / GbE / 2.5GbE / Gaming Family Controller Software Quick Download Link PCI GBE name: Realtek PCI GBE Ethernet Family Controller Software.

  • No sound on Ubuntu 16.04 with realtek ALC892 1 answer

This is my first venture into using Linux. Things have been mostly smooth, but I have run into an issue with sound: there is none.

I have checked this site, Google, and various other areas to no avail. I am by no means a novice user, but as stated above I am largely ignorant to how Linux handles driver compiles and installation. Any help, even just a point in the right direction, would be greatly appreciated!

  • System:
    • AMD Ryzen 1700X
    • MSI X370 SLI Plus Motherboard with Realtek ALC892 chipset.
    • OS: Ubuntu GNOME 17.04, Kernel: 4.11.0

Everything works so far except there is no sound. I have followed several guides that have claimed [SOLVED] on the issue but no luck for me. The most recent guide I have tried has been Realteks own, included in the Linux 3.0 Driver package.

The Realtek HD Audio device shows in BIOS and is enabled. However the hardware device does not show up once i boot into Linux. In sound settings only 'Dummy Output' is shown as a virtual device. No hardware device is detected. I am assuming this is because the driver failed to install correctly in Ubuntu. The device outputs sound just fine in Windows 7 and 10.

Following their guide, I end up with a few errors in the ./config, make, and make install steps. I'll include the output here.

I am sure that the sound issue is due to this driver install process ailing, but I am not sure how to fix it.
