Exclamation Problems With ALSA Sound on PClinuxos


My current sound card is currently a PCI Soundblaster 32-bit. The card is reconized, and installed but I'm not getting any sound. I also have an on board sound device that has also been reconized is there anyway to test to see if the sound is working for the Soundblaster card?

I have no idea about that distro but if it recongnizes you card my biggest guess is the card is muted...

you can check this by opening a console/shell and type:

Alsamixer
then to unmute you press (m).

hope its the key.
