In other side:
[joseluisbz@centos ~]$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
options snd-hda-intel model=pch position_fix=1
[joseluisbz@centos ~]$
now checking with alsamixer
I get this.
As you can see: I have in Card: PulseAudio
Changing with F6.
and selecting F5 in order to view all Settings.
But, exiting the changes are not saved. And the Selected Sound Card is not preserved.
Now, I want to use sudo alsamixer.
[joseluisbz@centos ~]$ sudo alsamixer
[sudo] password for joseluisbz:
No protocol specified
xcb_connection_has_error() returned true
ALSA lib pulse.c:243:(pulse_connect) PulseAudio: Unable to connect: Connection refused
cannot open mixer: Connection refused
[joseluisbz@centos ~]$
Later, after to do changes:
[joseluisbz@centos ~]$ alsamixer
[joseluisbz@centos ~]$ alsactl store
alsactl: state_lock:125: file /var/lib/alsa/asound.state lock error: File exists
[joseluisbz@centos ~]$
[joseluisbz@centos ~]$ alsactl init

How Can I solve this?
