Hi all, I am having a very weird problem with my sound running a AMD K7 onboard sound card, the Ensoniq 5880 AudioPCI
The problem is that even though the volume is at 100% on the controls the audio coming out of the speakers can only just be heard. I have been able to determine that there is nothing wrong with the speakers as they work AOK on my Windy box. I have tried many things with the help of Dave Jones but still have not been able to solve the error. I have tried: Aumix, Timidity, CDPlayer, Arts Builder, KDE Media Player, Midi and Karaoke Player, Midi synth, Sound Mixer, arts control, xmms. I have also tried running the following from a root terminal: sndconfig, kmix, gmix, umix and xmix? Three of the *mix ones commands could not be found and the kmix, I think had a nice GUI with all the levels showing at 80%, all the green lights are on and one red light on. There are three coloured holes on the panel which accept a 3.5mm jack plug namely, a pink one with a mic next to it, a blue one with headphones next to it and a green one with what looks like a speaker next to it. I am using the blue headphones socket. Any ideas where the fault could be or do I need to pack it back in the box and return it to the store and tell them I'm too fffing stupid to own a PC? -- ====================================================================== Hylton Conacher on KDE Registered Linux user # 229959 on Mandrake 8 on an AMD 1 Ghz K7 Licenced Windows 95 user More hardware info on request ======================================================================
