Working on an Asus X555LA laptop. Specs here: https://www.cnet.com/products/asus-x555la-hi31103j-15-6-core-i3-5020u-4-gb-ram-1-tb-hdd/ . Sound has been working fine on this machine, but recently it stopped working and Im trying to tell if its something I can repair. Checking in device manager, there are no audio devices, neither for the Realtek drivers, or Intel HD Audio from the processor. Ive tried restarting, ive tried reinstalling drivers, neither worked. I do have a Ubuntu USB so i booted into a live session, and from the settings window, it didnt have any sound devices either. If anyone knows the terminal command to check device details, id be glad to check that too.
I looked in the BIOS, and its VERY limited what can be changed in there and none of those options had anything to do with audio. Im stumped, is sound on this laptop just permabroke unless i use a USB soundcard? Would Realtek AND Intel audio both break at the same time?
