--Message-Boundary-8768 No need to apologize. If it is the PCM channel, then I don't know how to access its information to know if it is muted or not. I noticed that alsa was installed but not running (I did a ps | grep as root). Pulseaudio was actually running. I didn't know it was a wrapper for Alsa. It appears to be standalone going by the docs (I don't see alsa or OSS listed as a pre-requisite or a system requirement). Paul On 20 Feb 2016 at 5:43, Russell Reiter wrote: Sorry to top post.
