Hi,
Pulseaudio is now delivered as 64-bits in /usr/bin.
As usual Pulseaudio may not able to cope with its own configuration files
when version or bitness is changed ...
If Pulseaudio does not start after reboot, you may need to remove the
configuration files in ~/.config/pulse/ ...

After updating and rebooting, I have a good sound improvement on my Lenovo
Laptop T400.

It's not as strong as under Linux in comparaison but there is a good
improvement.

big thank

Good to hear!

With some chipsets it seems that the sound level can be further increased since pulseaudio may only use the volume set by OSS as maximum limit.
The default setting for OSS is 75% of the maximum provided by the hardware, so setting the volume control with audioctl may improve the situation.

This morning I tested in liveDVD solaris 11.3 to see the audio support on
the Laptop. There's a big difference. The sound is clear and heavy. Yet the
drivers are the same.

Maybe the sound management under Mate is less efficient.

I did the same test on My desktop with the asus D1 sound card and the
fabulous audiocmi driver and I don't have sound so much under solaris 11.3.

Check the current sound level with audioctl.
