    Exclamation Problems with sound preferences HELP!!

    Hi,

    I just got linux, and i could watch perfectly fine my movies with MOVIE PLAYER, until i accidently played around with SOUND PREFERENCES, and now i have no idea what it was before, and I cant hear anything from my videos.
    All i can tell you is that these are the different choices for every tab under sound preferences:
    SOUNDS EVENTS:
    - Sound Playback : OSS, HDA Intel Analog, HDA Digital, ALSA, ESD, Pulse Audio Sound Sever

    Music and Movies
    -Sound Playback: OSS, HDA Intel Analog, HDA Digital, ALSA, ESD, Pulse Audio Sound Sever

    AUDIO CONFERENCING
    -Sound Playback: OSS, HDA Intel Analog, HDA Digital, ALSA, ESD, Pulse Audio Sound Sever
    -Sound Capture: OSS, HDA Intel Analog, HDA Digital, ALSA, ESD, Pulse Audio Sound Sever

    Default Mixer
    - Device: [U]Analog Devices AD1981 (OSS MIXER, Capture ALSA PCM on front (AD198 Analog), Capture Monitor Source of Alsa PCM on front, HDA Intel[(alsa mixer), Playback ALSA PCM on front [U]

    I know i shouldnt have messed around with it, but i reeaallly need your help
    and it would be great if you could tell me what i should put under every selection
    thanks a lot

    Take care

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    You probably accidentally turned the input volume down. What distribution+version and desktop (kde, gnome) are you running?
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
    Just remember, Semper Gumbi - always be flexible!
