Wrong again. In fact, the problem was that pulseaudio was not running. A simple 'pulseaudio start' - et voila! Sound. I found this along the way: # pulseaudio --dump-conf ### Read from configuration file: /etc/pulse/daemon.conf ### daemonize = no [...] Why is it set to No by default? Isn't PA deaf without the daemon running? -- Regards, Peter.
