If not, disable it by deselecting in "Sounds" tab of "Sound Preferences" (System->Preferences->Sound) . To assure that no ESD is not running execute 'killall esd'. Rename any '.asoundrc' in $HOME to something else. Now execute "alsamixer" on terminal, and see if "PCM", "Front", and "Wave" playback controls are not muted and not zeroed. If you've any .WAV files, try playing them using: [EMAIL PROTECTED] aplay file.wav If you don't have any .wav files, use: [EMAIL PROTECTED] aplay `which aplay` This will produce some noise, which you can cancel by pressing Ctrl+C . If you still didn't get hear any noise, post output of 'dmesg' .
