Then how do you specify the default card? This laptop has a HDMI port as well as the standard internal audio and headphone jack. If I'm understanding this correctly, it views them as two separate sound cards: [anthony@newerLaptop ~]$ aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: HDMI [HDA Intel HDMI], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: HDMI [HDA Intel HDMI], device 7: HDMI 1 [HDMI 1] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: HDMI [HDA Intel HDMI], device 8: HDMI 2 [HDMI 2] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: ALC3223 Analog [ALC3223 Analog] Subdevices: 0/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 [anthony@newerLaptop ~]$ With no /etc/asound.conf or ~/.asoundrc, it doesn't play anything out of the internal speakers or the headphone jack, and alsamixer shows the HDMI out as the default audio device. I've never had a chance to test this, but I'd bet that when I try to play something it goes out the HDMI audio, which I don't use 99% of the time. Since I very rarely use my microphone, I've never noticed if it worked or not, though your test proved that it didn't work. So what would your solution be? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJV2ftcAAoJEKsIo3dIjvw7aBYIALpDsMcbPI6b31yAlanFvC7Z uM7i0ZokoZBTkmZAixts2JJgPrLA4qbLe0iTpVb1FTE8xRCLzq54b5SBKIaYijsE I3GZAjH95evNXUEs9pQ0pI1g3olxgkMjETVnJIo1nEdp85RBF2Q5+SlYIrW/fjo5 agOr5zwrnNQL0NFVYhpedmAUqrEQmXk8bw4BJMxwZU7QRt7uxK6no6uI0q4Nytqr 540D8/FlkDBIQ08dltKpFlrdgnw6ZbYlpl20pojOgnbO0D4ZE4ue8MMJ6EHSTrBo a7bWDY+FhNRY7quXPt7dbgSFWdm2UYsBLzlSM7+FXvLqiARrnxiT/0li+2zBiWw= =1zKC -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
