Well I was having the same problem with my system. I have solved the problem by using the following instructions I hope it will help you to solve your problem. Well you have to edit the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf file as login in to root. You have to hit Alt + F2 from the keyboard and open the editor for e.g. kdesu kate.
