Hi, kubuntu feisty. Sound generally works in that I can use amarok
to play MP3s. Yet I have no sound trying to view something like a
YouTube video in a player embedded in a web browser. And the "Test
Sound" button in System Settings doesn't produce any sound. Audio
device is ASLA, full duplex.
Googling hasn't given me any clarity or success eg installed
libflash-mozplugin, have installed all codecs and plugins available
in Automatix (flash, mplayer, firefox, multimedia codecs).
What/where do I need to be looking for/at?

do you have alsa's oss emulation running? Take a look at lsmod|grep oss
I am pretty sure that at least some flash players only use oss sound,
not alsa.
not sure if this says i do or not:

I have been rather confused about sound on this installation. Another
sound related thing I have noticed is that with sound mixer or the
volume control in amarok, a change in volume control takes around 15
seconds to take effect. To my mind I may have more than one
sound-related issue to resolve, the googling I have done hasn't help my
lack of clarity given the large number of different issues (and fixes)
that people seem to have experienced.
