Daniel, here's my current situation: Every time I first login, the sound(regardless of user acct used) is set to the lowest level (in muted status).
So then I turn up the sound and it works.. but as mentioned above, the sound is very "fragile", as I can easily break it by hitting backspace twice in the terminal. Also, sometimes when I launch more than one sound source, i.e., youtube and an mp3 in movie player at the same time, the sound breaks until I reset it again. To reset everything I have to turn the sound to "Off" in the hardware tab of sound preferences, and then back to something like "Stereo Duplex". Switching the sound off and on again would be an acceptable work-around if I could assign that action to a keystroke or something. Can you provide instructions for how to do this? What terminal or command-line action happens when I switch the sound off and then back on? The problem is that if I run a game in wine, the screen resolution changes and it's then very hard (after hitting ctrl+alt+d to show the desktop) to access the on/off control in the sound preferences. This problem seems to only be with the NVIDIA-chipset-based computer that I have, as I just recently upgraded my Dell Inspiron 2650 to Karmic and it works fine. Thanks for any help you can provide. I greatfully appreciate it!
