Alsa Master stacked

[cherupop]

Hi guys I'm having a little problem with my alsa config, when I run alsamixer in order to check the level of volume of the different items (master , sorround etc..) I noticed that I'm able to increase the volume of some bars but the one for master, pcm and sorround (which are the one at the left side) don't show any increse in volume, I deactived the mm from every one of them and then I try pressing the arrows up and down but master, pcm and sorround doesn't make any indication color of volume



finally when I run the volume test I can't hear anything

any tip

use the amixer command to unmute the channels. here is a howto: http://www.alsa-project.org/~valenty...i-HOWTO-6.html

read the man page too.

hmm I tried several commands among them

amixer set Master 15


but I'm still not able to move the sound bar with alsamixer

any other tip that I can try?

did you try "unmute"?

follow this guide closely and you wont have any problems at all (providing you do what it says)

check that the "PCM" is also turned up!

I followed the guide but still I havevn't been able to change the volume level with the amixer's command.

the promt accept the changes but when I recheck with command amixer the keep showing zero.

these 3 items (master, pmc and sorround) are unmuted I'm pretty sure of that.
