suse 9.2 sound problem

Chapin · 02-02-2005, 06:58 PM

My sound works fine with headphones, but not with my speakers. I have altec lansing 4.1 speakers that I bought with a dell years ago, and now they're hooked up to my new Shuttle Athlon box. the hook-ups were a little weird, and only the stereox2 setting worked with windows, but it worked. Now, with linux, not so much. Anyone know anything?

Hi Chapin, welcome to lq. We'll need to know how you connect the speakers to the computer. The output from /sbin/lspci -v would also help with resaerch on your card. Have you tried adjusting some things on one or more of your mixers?
good luck.

my speakers have three cords, a center, surround and digital that plug into the integrated sound card on the motherboard. as far as /sbin/lspci-v, i'm a complete and total n00b, and so don't know what that is... yet. i did everything i possibly could with the mixers, so, if you tell me how to answer the second question, i'll get right on it. after i post about firefox being on strike...

Open konsole and type in the commands. Copy the output and paste it here.
good luck.
