Reported on qa-d that sound does work once the installation completes.

Any idea about this Thierry? 

The email address being show sounds like maybe an l10n issue, CC'ing Marc to check.

The first part of this is the same problem as bug 15959 - something is creating bogus entries in the modules.description file:

% grep snd-intel /lib/modules/3.19.8-desktop-2.mga5/modules.description 
snd-intel8x0m	Intel 82801AA,82901AB,i810,i820,i830,i840,i845,MX440; SiS 7013; NVidia MCP/2/2S/3 modems
snd-intel8x0	Intel 82801AA,82901t/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/kernel-3.19.8-2.mga5.x86_64/lib/modules/3.19.8-desktop-2.mga5/./kernel/drivers/media/dvb-frontends/stv0900.ko.xz

Comment 6 You-Cheng Hsieh 2015-06-11 03:21:13 CEST
Confirmed reproducible when sound card is AC'97 based chip. Both virtualbox and real hardware.
Comment 7 You-Cheng Hsieh 2015-06-11 03:35:34 CEST
Please tell me why there's a partial email in modules.description:

[user@localhost 3.19.8-desktop586-2.mga5]$ grep snd-intel modules.description 
snd-intel8x0      Daniel Mack <linux@zonque     Microchip CAP11XX driver

Comment 8 Thierry Vignaud 2015-06-11 06:33:34 CEST
This came from drivers/input/keyboard/cap11xx.c
See http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/plain/drivers/input/keyboard/cap11xx.c
I wonder how a builtin driver can ends 
BTW I don't see this on my installed system so sg must regenerates modules.description.

BTW the way it's built in kernel.spec is bogus.
Testing with xargs -P4 results in garbaged output from times to times.
eg see this mixed line:
rtc-r9701       r9701b/modules/3.19.8-desktop-2.mga5/./kernel/sound/pci/snd-intel8x0m.ko.xz
Comment 9 Thierry Vignaud 2015-06-11 06:39:50 CEST
Actually I can see it with the i586 build, in lib/modules/3.19.8-desktop586-2.mga5/modules.description

Comment 10 You-Cheng Hsieh 2015-06-15 16:50:39 CEST
Fixed in round 8(tested in virtualbox, might better confirm it in real hardware).
Comment 11 Marja Van Waes 2016-08-26 11:42:33 CEST
Mass-reassigning all bugs with "kernel" in the Source RPM field that are assigned to tmb, to the kernel packagers group, because tmb is currently MIA.

Actually this one is to be closed
