Not at all LFE wiring on codecs are equal. I agree that it may be unrelated, but we can't deduce that from your hw without actually trying it.
Yes, the second suggestion was interpreted correctly.

If have no problem with getting an audio signal sent to the LFE speaker; I haven't noticed any application/configuration/... where sound isn't sent there as expected. The only issue is the volume control on that speaker is defaulted low/zero/muted (don't recall which) so I simply can't hear the sounds being sent there. When I simply adjust the "Master Mono" volume control, the LFE speaker works fine. (Perhaps the HW is extracting the LFE signal from the stereo signal sent to the main two speakers itself, so it doesn't need SW to concoct a 3rd channel explicitly for the LFE; that'd seem far more likely to work than expecting SW to come up with a non-standard 2.1 signal.) > 2) make sure Master Mono is unmuted prior to GNOME session login Do you have any tips how to do that? If "Master Mono" is unmuted, does that mean the regular volume control will suddenly start changing the "Master Mono" volume too, or are you just recommending setting "Master Mono" to something unmuted and say mid-range volume and leaving it there? Thanks. -- "Master Mono" (actually LFE) is not controlled by default https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/369036 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Audio Team, which is subscribed to alsa-driver in ubuntu. Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: On my laptop, Alsa Mixer and the gnome panel volume control applet show two channels which both control different subsets of the laptop's built-in speakers; Master and "Master Mono". I think Master controls the smaller speakers and "Master Mono" the larger/bass speakers. By default, the gnome volume control applet (and also the dedicated volume keys on my laptop) only control Master, and ignore "Master Mono". This leaves "Master Mono" set at a high volume all the time, which sounds crap. To WAR this issue, in Gnome, I go to System -> Preferences -> Sound, and change the selection in the list box under "Default Mixer Tracks" to include both Master and "Master Mono". Now the volume applet and volume keys control both channels, which works great. This should be automatic (part of the volume control applet, or the driver, or ...); I shouldn't have to configure this myself.
