aplay -l = command not found

[deHakkelaar]

I just now tried myself without errors:

Terminal

# Install alsa-utils:
$ sudo apt-get install alsa-utils
The following NEW packages will be installed:
alsa-utils
Setting up alsa-utils (1.0.25-4) ...

# Test aplay:
$ aplay -l
aplay: device_list:252: no soundcards found...

# List loaded kernel modules and grep for sound:
$ lsmod | grep snd_bcm2835

# Load the sound kernel module:
$ sudo modprobe snd_bcm2835

# List loaded kernel modules and grep for sound:

# Test aplay:
$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****

card 0: ALSA [bcm2835 ALSA], device 1: bcm2835 ALSA [bcm2835 IEC958/HDMI]

I had to do a modprobe to get the sound card driver loaded (see above).
To have the soundcard driver loaded at every boot (persistent) :

Terminal

sudo echo "snd_bcm2835" >> /etc/modules

Try to run below one first before trying to install anything:

Terminal

sudo apt-get update

And if still not working, drop the output for "sudo apt-get install alsa-utils" on pastebin and post link here please ?
