Bob,

You know, there isn't much to all this.  The internal speaker on these 
machines
is turned off when you plug something into the earphone jack on the wings 
card. 
Maybe the switch in the jack is screwed up so the switch is always in the
speaker off positition.  I never use the internal speaker..I always use an
external amp and speakers so I don't know.  If you are getting sound at the
earphone jack, maybe that is the problem.

But it could be simpler than that.  In the audio control panel in X (today I'm
writing in 9 so I don't have it in front of me) there is an option to put the
volume control on the menu bar, which I always select to do.  Ever since I've
been using X on my Beige, through all the 10.2 upgrades and including 10.3.4, 
that darn menu slider defaults to off.  I get no sound unless I put the volume
up.  I have to do it at every reboot if I'm using sound.

Maybe that's your problem.  Wouldn't that be simple? >>

Richard,
Point well made about the plug/switch. I'll have to get some cables &
ext spkrs or rig up something else to test sound in/out & RCA.
I was going to have to do this eventually anyway.

Wish it was simple slider or mute issue. Not running OSX yet (9.2.2) &
I have verified all the sliders are active/working in cp/cs & that no
mute buttons are checked anywhere.
As you said this is not rocket science :-)
Bob
