These volume controls are all set quite low. You can change this in alsamixer - open a terminal and execute the command "alsamixer -D hw:Intel" - but first make sure you have selected a surround profile: Click the speaker icon, then "sound preferences", then go to the "hardware" tab, select the right card "Internal Audio" and make sure the correct surround profile is set. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/746087 Title: natty: 5.1 surround not working -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
