researched a lot on it but nothing helped. Outputs of some commands are COMMAND: lspci -v | grep -A7 -i "audio"

there is no 'options snd-hda-intel model=zepto' in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.confas mentioned here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1836152

Never experienced any problem in other OS (windows[dual booting] or ubuntu).

Please help I am newbie in linux world.

EDIT: Volume level is 100% in "Output devices"

I tried the alsamixer, the following screen showed up on terminal. It seems the sound levels are maximum.

You have 2 sound devices on your pc:
first one is HDMI output, second one is the main device (HDA Intel pch).

If the main sound card (HDA Intel pch) is not shown in standard "sound settings" (i don't know if you have such setting in xubuntu):

  • Install and run pavucontrol (Pulseaudio volume control), go in "output device" tab, scroll down to main soundcard , set its volume and check "mute" state .

  • If no luck, try to launch Alsamixer in a terminal, press F6, select 2nd sound card and increase all volumes (with arrow keys) and check mute state (press "m" to mute/unmute).
