I'm not sure what the default is for alsa; I think it's the pulse server. For pulse, it's listed as Internal Audio Analog Stereo Duplex in the sound control panel (I'm using Gnome3). Setting the audio driver to "alsa" for mplayer didn't make a difference. I also tried running... mplayer something.ogg -mixer-channel Front -ao alsa ...which still didn't get sound out of the speakers, although I'm not sure whether that's what you meant. Also, any program that uses also has been printing this on startup. ALSA lib conf.c:1220:(parse_def) show is not a compound ALSA lib conf.c:1686:(snd_config_load1) _toplevel_:24:26:Unexpected char ALSA lib conf.c:3406:(config_file_open) /usr/share/alsa/pulse-alsa.conf may be old or corrupted: consider to remove or fix it But it's been doing that since long before the speakers stopped working, so I don't think this helps any. --Aidan _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.canterbury.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
