Sound problem
Hello list, (I am not to experienced with debian - I hope I didn' overlook some FAQ.) I just installed debian-5.0 with kde-5.3 on an old Laptop (Medion MD 5222). Everything works fine so far, but I have problems with the sound device. This is the output of # cat /dev/sndstat Sound Driver:3.8.1a-980706 (ALSA v1.0.16 emulation code) Kernel: Linux x 2.6.26-2-686 #1 SMP Wed Nov 4 20:45:37 UTC 2009 i686 Config options: 0 Installed drivers: Type 10: ALSA emulation Card config: VIA 82C686A/B rev50 with AD1886 at 0x1000, irq 5 Audio devices: 0: VIA 82C686A/B rev50 (DUPLEX) Synth devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG Midi devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG Timers: 7: system timer Mixers: 0: Analog Devices AD1886 - I can # cat some_file /dev/audio and kde will play some little tune when started. But it seems neither kde's CD-player nor its mulimedia-player can produce any sound. What's wrong here? Thanks for your help.
