I experienced a similar problem, along with the inability to select sound output on my Pismo running OS 9 the other day. I had to restart to be able to move my sound from internal to anything else, and the sound sounded weird. I decided it must have been a static discharge that had shocked something hardware-wise. I had brought my Pismo home from work, and plugged all my cables back in. When I was doing that, however, I got shocked, and could even hear the shock through both the internal speakers and the external. I didn't notice what had happened for a while, but I finally realized that I couldn't do anything to the audio. At first I was nervous, but a restart returned everything to normal. It has certainly changed how I plug my cables in now, however. I always de-staticize (sic) myself before plugging or unplugging stuff into the back of my Pismo. It is possible, I suppose that I could have permanently fried my sound board. -- Jon Glass Krakow, Poland <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 'A general dissolution of principles and manners will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the whole force of the common enemy.
