I updated my Surface Pro 3 From Ubuntu 17.10 to Ubuntu 18.04 (did a clean install) and now I can only get audio when using the headphone jack.
I have already tried all these:

I went back and tested the live CD and even the live cd has no audio through the speakers. so this must be related to 18.04. I never had sound issues before and under windows audio still works correctly.

Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?



Update: here is my alsa iformation

HOLY CRAP... I removed the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf and now sounds works !
i am going to try adding line by line to see which config entry was breaking the audio

welp.... I have no idea what just happened.... but renaming /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.bk , then rebooting the computer fixed the my speaker sound issue.



I then restored line by line to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf, rebooting between restored lines, until all lines were back.... and ... it still worked!
so I restored the original /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf and rebooted the computer and everything was still working....
so I am not sure what the problem was but is now fixed.
