I'm using " amixer set Speaker 100%" to turn the volume all the way up, but the sound level coming out of my mini-speaker (via USB sound adapter) is barely a whisper - but it is definitely audible. Do I just need a bigger speaker? Lower Ohms? Different "amixer" settings?
Anyway, here is a link to the audio adapter: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IRVQ0F8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and here is a link to the mini-speaker. https://www.adafruit.com/product/1890?gclid=CjwKCAiAlNf-BRB_EiwA2osbxVKKNeMPMA_9rEXRKPnz9IsqDNvQx1z-Oz6XTPvXRog8NjRMjgmNchoC_ZQQAvD_BwE Here is the output of the "amixer" commands: debian@beaglebone:/var/lib/cloud9$ amixer set Speaker 100% Simple mixer control 'Speaker',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 37 Mono: Front Left: Playback 37 [100%] [0.00dB] [on] Front Right: Playback 37 [100%] [0.00dB] [on] debian@beaglebone:/var/lib/cloud9$ amixer Simple mixer control 'Speaker',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 37 Mono: Front Left: Playback 37 [100%] [0.00dB] [on] Front Right: Playback 37 [100%] [0.00dB] [on] Simple mixer control 'Mic',0 Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined cvolume cvolume-joined pswitch pswitch-joined cswitch cswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: Playback 0 - 31 Capture 0 - 35 Mono: Playback 16 [52%] [-7.00dB] [off] Capture 20 [57%] [8.00dB] [on] Simple mixer control 'Auto Gain Control',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Mono: Playback [on] debian@beaglebone:/var/lib/cloud9$ aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav Playing WAVE '/usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Mono The result is a barely audible female voice saying "front center".
