There is something wrong with the sounddaemon gnome uses. Is it puleaudio or esd. Just try to set averything to alsa > But as I cannot seem to reproduce those tweaks after the last > clean install. To do a meaningful test do as follows: Switch to console via <STRG> <ALT> <F1> Logon as user Run alsamixer and check for muted Masters and PCM's. Just unmute everything.
