--->8 I gave up: not just life is too short - so was my sanity. I installed a new stable system from bare metal, created a new user account and now I have a working system. Oddly, the system announces that it's found the USB sound dongle when I switch the speakers on, even though the dongle has been there all along. Yet another of life's little mysteries, I suppose. Thanks are due to many who tried to help, so thank you all. -- Regards, Peter.
