Welcome to LQ. Please provide more details about your PC - what kind of motherboard are you using (make and model)? Also, are you sure that the volume settings are turned up sufficiently? If you can provide a more detailed description of the equipment you're uisng it will help people provide suggestions. Good luck with it -- J.W.

try:

cat /proc/modules

Look for "gameport" on the left hand side. The other module on the same line should be your sound card. Your sound card should also show up on a number of lines that start with "snd". If you need to read higher than you can see on the screen, then hold shift and push "page up"/"page down".

JW is right in that more hardware information is preferable. Specifically, what sound card do you have?
