Yep. Just can't hear them at the moment! I'll write to you directly
about that.

Yep, they're all there.

I'd tried that, and got nothing (there was a faint increase in
background noise level, but that's all). Not sure whether doing it to
/proc/asound/dev/pcmC0D0p is valid or not; there's an old HOWTO on the
ALSA website that suggests it, but it may be out of date.

That was the first thing I tried. Only used alsamixer to do it so
far (although amixer seems to agree that the appropriate channels are
unmuted).
Not sure where to proceed next (although I'll include the
obligatory outputs of lsmod etc after this), but I'm beginning to
wonder if this is just the latest Santa Cruz problem. I've posted to
this list before about the gyrations I've had to go through to get
some channels to produce sound (e.g. to get sound out of the Line
input: mute the CD input, which will also mute the PCM input). Yeah, I
know, weird, but I begin to recall that I'd been playing with Santa
Cruz settings under Windows a week or so ago, and that may have
started the problem. The PCM output still works ok under Windows, so I
know it's not a hardware problem.
