Well, all your tests above suggets that you DO have a soundcard :) No output from lspci indicates, to me, that you have an ISA-cards, or at least not a pci-card. I think you can bypass KDE and mixer-setting by using 'play' if its installed.Try 'play --device=/dev/sound/dsp a_sound_file_in_wav_format.wav' If you get a 'device busy' message, wait a minute and try again Now, if you _do_ get sound then, your physical setting are ok. (which they are since you could play cd's) Then check KMix again. Right-click the icon in the taskbar, show mixer and check the 3rd item from left, wich should be pcm. There's a tooltip at the little icon above each slider. Volume up, and not muted. If it doesn't work, then I have to leave it to some expert, since I'm out of ideas good luck /Björn
