I just installed Mandrake 8.1 & everything is working OK except for the sound.
The sound card is recognised & if I play a CD with the volume turned up fully on my speakers & on the program playing the CD I can hear it (just about)
When I log in I get the little tune playing & the sound sounds Ok ie at the correct volume.
The problem seem's to just be with music.
Does anyone know if there's a file I can edit to change the volume when playing CD's ???
Or even some sort of an idea why this is happening.
