No Sound/ Audio in Ubuntu ? , Audio Driver Installation in Ubuntu

No Audio in Ubuntu? . Is your Sound menu inside Ubuntu settings showing Dummy Output Device instead of Build-in Audio Device ?
Don't worry give this command in Terminal and
it will install pulseaudio along with Audio Drivers
An active internet connection is necessary for this command
sudo apt-get install pulseaudio
pulseaudio -k && sudo alsa force-reload
(Give Password if Prompted)
