Ok, that worked fine. After removing pulseaudio I had to do the following
steps to select the default audio output device:
$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: HDMI [HDA ATI HDMI], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: Generic [HD-Audio Generic], device 0: CX20590 Analog [CX20590 Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
and creating/modifying ~/.asoundrc and defining the default device (here card
1, device 0) therein:
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave {
pcm "hw:1,0"
}
}
ctl.!default {
type hw
card 1
}
And using the package "alsamixergui" as the mixer.
