From the another hand commang:

But I know, this may not give you nessesary information. If you need more information about hardware I am using I would be glad to help you with nessesary information.

What I tryed?

Alsamixer install, reinstall - check; not working;

Pavucontrol install, reinstall - check; not working;

Windows drivers drive by ndiswrappper - check; not working;

Solution 1:

i have a very similar setup with bytcr-rt5651 and ubuntu 17.10 this fixed mine:

1. in etc/modprobe.d create file blacklist_hdmi.conf with contents:

   blacklist snd_hdmi_lpe_audio
   

2. download and run this linixium sh script:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B99O3A0dDe67VUNMV2xfVjJKeVk/edit

3. in /usr/share/alsa/ucm/ create a bytcr-rt5651 folder with contents:

   asound.state

   bytcr-rt5651.conf

   HiFi.conf

4. sudo alsa force-reload

5. rm -r ~/.pulse ~/.asound* ~/.pulse-cookie ~/.config/pulse
6. pulseaudio -k
7. reboot
8. open pavucontrol and set configuration profile to HiFi and change output from headphones to speakers.

Solution 2:

Use Linuxium respinned Ubuntu iso( http://linuxiumcomau.blogspot.com/2019/03/ubuntu-announced-new-point-releases-for.html ) if sound not working do the steps suggested by Dave Slash Knoll . I'm using a Baytrail device and i got working speakers with doing above method .
