I've installed ALSA as described on several HOWTOs. And everything went so far fine. The drivers are running, but still no sound comes out of the box.
It's like the sound is muted. But I turned with amixer the things on.
Has anyone an idea how to fix this? In spite of my intense search of the Internet, I was not able to find a solution.
Thanks in advance.
