Sound works kind of..........

[tom boucher]

I am running KDE 3.2 on Mandrake 10.1 I ran alsaconf for an ESS 1869 sound card. The only sound I had was in the KDE 3.2 Sound System menu when I hit test. There is no sound when I hit the midi test. I have been experimenting with some games. All of the games produce sound. There are no system test or bell sounds and CD's do not play sounds either. Weird. Any ideas

Try

alsamixer

and check nothings muted

[tom boucher]

thanks, will try. Some stuff was not turned up all the way. we will see........

[tom boucher]

Still does not work. Any other options.

[dylunio]

Try other mixers like KAMix, gamix?

[tom boucher]

Ok worth a try. How will another mixer solve the issue?

[dylunio]

I think if its muted in ALSAmixer and in KAMix, and you unmute ALSAmixer, but KAMix is still muted, so the sound will still be muted o'r something;
