no sound 10.2

[th3dougler]

before you flame me for ignoring the similar thread below this - understand, i tried those things and they didnt work
alsamixer informs me that all my levels are good and unmuted - but under chip its referring to my built in soundcard and i am using a creative live! 24 bit PCI soundcard
I notice in
COntrol Centre -> Sound system
under the hardware tab there is some mention of overriding the device location, where could i find out what my device is called and/or what is it called

thanks in advance

you might to beable to get it to work will have to turn off the integrated sound in the bios first then run alsaconf. it may have problems with the integrated. try that and see if it works if not come back post and we will keep trying to help you.
