Curiously I did not have /usr/bin/aplay. I had used the blfs recipe configure, make, make install to build/install it. I had to re-compile alsa-1.0.18 with PKG_CONFIG_PATH specified and other options such as alsa-prefix. Now I have /usr/bin/aplay. I tried /usr/bin/aplay /usr/share/sounds/Noise.wav (and other sounds in the /usr/share/sounds directory) and even some in /opt/kde4/share/sounds directory ALL to no avail. I just get a ' pop'. The alsamixer levels are all 'up'. In kde kmix and other audio applications still refuse to budge. suggestions welcomed lux-integ > -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
