OK, you are painted red, and hello "embarrassed". Actually there is some silly setup switch in the gui, such as KDE, where you can have your system beep (term) go to your external speakers, as opposed to using the system speaker. I've used it in the past but don't really remember where the switch is, and I don't really care either. Maybe this function is turned on for the user having the sound problems but it does not mean the sound card is fully setup to do all you would hope that it can do. I think we would need to know a bit more about the problem in order to diagnose it from afar... drjung -- J.
