I plugged in my Headphones into the onboard > card, but still have no sound! Well, if/when jack is started, only "jackified" applications or "jack clients" will make sound. In other words, you have to make sure that you can connect the app's audio outputs to the "system" playbacks. (See the connect window of qjackctl. In this context, "system" means the audio card that jack is using). The default sound server in ubuntu(studio) is pulseaudio. Banshee/rhytmhbox, flashplayer in firefox, etc, are not "jackified" by default. To solve this problem you have either to jackify the apps, use other apps or enable some kind of bridge between pulseaudio (or alsa) and jack. As a quick test you can use a jack-friendly audio player, for example, aqualung. Aqualung will know if jack is active and you will see it in the connections window. For the pulseaudio to jack bridge, follow the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudioPreparation#Pulse_Audio If you still have no sound from your onboard card, check playback levels in alsamixer. > Some days ago I read a post in a board about enabling the onboard-soundcard > in the BIOS - I never touched the BIOS, except for installing operating > systems from a USB-Stick.

I selected hw:1,0 as Input device (which is the > ESI) Well, sometimes the ESI is hw:1, sometimes is hw:0. You can give consistent numbers to the audio cards in a configuration file, /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf. This is explained in alsa-project site, multiple audio cards. As you noted, the site is down so, for the time being, you will have to check every time in qjackctl setup or name the card by name instead of by number. > and hw:1,1 as output (which is also the ESI). The first number is the card (Karte) number, which can change between reboots. The second number is the device number (Gerät). See aplay -l. According to arecord -l && aplay -l, the ESI has two devices, both of them are duplex (they can record and playback at the same time) and the second one (number 1) is digital, IEC958. To access the analog inputs and outputs, you should choose hw:x,0 as input and output devices, or once for both in the interface field. (hw:Juli should default to hw:x,0 where x is the card number for the ESI).

By now, increase the frames/periods value. BTW, if you don't mind waiting for three weeks or so, I hope ubuntustudio 12.04 will give you a much better first time experience.
