nouveau only does HDMI(/DP) audio. A different driver will handle a
built-in sound card (e.g. snd_hda_intel). You might want to reach out
to your distro's support channels to better diagnose what's going on.
Unlikely to have anything to do with nouveau. More likely that you had
added "acpi=off" to hack around this. Or perhaps pci=nomsi for a
broken audio adapter? Don't know. dmesg (not to mention google) will
have the answers.

Thanks - I switched monitors - using a 4K monitor with buildin sound.
Sound works now- great.  but the screen is not in 4K . 
Does Nouveau not do 4K - 3840x2160?

Thanks!

HA! I just dawned on my the OLD GT218 does not do 4K... The 4K display looks like a strched for some reason - I thought it would jus tbe the normal 1080p.
Anyway - got it working - thanks to all the suggestions!
