Muted volume in Xfce

Good day.

I'm using Xubuntu and I loves it! Loves it!

I'm trying to un-mute my volume on startup.

Anyone know?

Thanx much in advance.

DO you have xfce4-mixer? Try installing that if you do not have it already.

Have you tried using the xfce-mixer to unmute the sounds? I don't think Xbuntu has alsa installed by default but if it does you can use alsamixer command to try unmuting.

Had a problem with the sound always muting when starting Xubuntu.

Removing the beast fixed it for me!

Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty – Keeping the beast Pulseaudio at bay Tux’s idyllic life.

For some reason (possibly the / at the end) it is putting a [/url at the end of itwhich is breaking it. Not sure if it will do the same without a url tag...
