man10ce audio problem: drivers loaded but no sound!
 
Hello,

I've Mandrake 10CE, with the 2.4.25mdk kernel. I can't get sound to come out...rest assured I'm plugged into the speakers and all, and they work. (Dual-boot with Windows, sound works fine on the Windows side!)

I have an Intel motherboard (D865PERL), so have the Intel AC97 Codec and 82081EB audio chipset.

Here's the thing. Drivers all seem to be happily loaded. ALSA configured with no problem (with alsaconf). I'm trying to configure with with MandrakeKDE, and have enabled the sound through the GUI configuration there.

Ultimately, I'm trying to get MythTV running so need to keep /dev/dsp in an available configuration (so will disable the KDE sound). But for now I'm trying to just get a "normal" configuration working before complicating things with MythTV! Some useful commands:

Have you installed and used alsamixer to unmute/turn up the volume?

mieslep 06-25-2004 10:34 PM

Just tried that, thanks for the suggestion. The Master volume was all the way down, so I turned it up. Alas, no effect. I'm trying to test the sound with the KDE configuration tool (the "test sound" button) as well as with a CD loaded. On a whim I checked to see what other alsa commands there were, came across alsactl. "alsactl power" tells me that the state of my card is D0, I assume this is "on"? Any other ideas?

Thanks!
