I was all happy until I decided to listen to a CD. No sound. I have looked everywhere I can see and see no problem. Also, when one goes to "configure your desktop->sound->sound system", there is a button to test MIDI. Nothing happens if I press there. I suspect the only sound I can produce is Wav sound.
Any help to allow me to listen to my music will be greatly appreciated.
You can get sound from .mp3's .ogg's and from the net etc., but not from CD ?
If so, maybe you use a CD player like Noatun (the KCDplayer). That one requires analog input. That means you'll have to check if there is an audio cable from the device to the motherboard or soundcard.
Other players like grip or xmms can use digital input and require no audio cable. I don't think grip needs any additional software, but xmms does. I think it is called xmms-cdread.
But first, try grip. If no go, report back.
It's a no-go, I'm afraid. Can't get even a small note, no low volume, nothing. I'll try to get the xmms-cdread and I'll report the outcome.
