Dave, That would be a good idea. My PC, loaded at the time with debian 9, ran fine for a few months then after a reboot for something unrelated, the OS decided to flip the cards around without any indications apart from the node audio missing, hence the audio.conf file I referred to below.

Reboot, and now the PCH module is card 0, and IRLP is playing nice now. Just need to tweak the audio a bit and get the equipment back to where it needs to be, and we're back in business.
Thanks for the help.

Looks like your audio is trying to go to the HDMI audio port on the video card. If you can disable it in bios that will make the PCH the new default.

Create '/etc/modprobe.d/audio.conf ' containing the 2 lines: (without the dashes!) ----------------------------- options <PCH module> index=0 options <hdmi module> index=1 ----------------------------- save the file and reboot

No it's a PC that I've reused.
I do see the sound card if I run alsactl init:
Found hardware: "HDA-Intel" "Intel Haswell HDMI" "HDA:80862807,80860101,00100000" "0x1028" "0x05c1" Hardware is initialized using a generic method
Alsaconf shows this at select sound card: Sound Card - (default) 0 HDA Intel HDMI 1 HDA Intel PCH enter device name..
Thanks!

Good evening..
Getting around to rebuilding our node here that has been inactive due to a hard drive crash a while ago, and I'm having issues with the system keying up & sending audio.
I've ran readinput and the system is decoding everything, but when I try to run the audio test the radio keys up for about a half a second, then automatically unkeys. If I reboot the node PC, where there would typically be the "IRLP Node Enabled" announcement, I get that same quick key & unkey with no audio.
Any ideas as to what I might be missing here?
Thanks and 73,

Looks like your audio is trying to go to the HDMI audio port on the video card. If you can disable it in bios that will make the PCH the new default.
