Is this happening with the CD player? It is possible that Alsa is set-up for CD Audio to reach the sound hardware on an analogue line. If the sound hardware, such as 'Screamer' does not have such an input then it may be impossible to raise the CD volume above zero (check the maximum level quoted in amixer). Modern Macs do not use analogue connections between the CD player and the sound hardware, but a digital connection. There is a patch to xmms that may help. <URL: http://www.imaclinux.net/gh.php?single=18 > Ben. -- Privileged/Confidential Information may be contained in this message.
