I'm assuming you can hear other sounds - system and whatnot.

Since I use KDE, I'll forward that solution.

Go to Geeko  Multimedia  Volume Control (KMix)

This will bring up your mixer application. Check to make sure all
your outputs are enabled (light green as opposed to dark green)
and that the volumes are turned up.

Assuming this is all well and good, then open Amarok and go to
Settings  Configure Amarok.

Click on the Engine Icon. For your sound System drop down make
sure you have something selected. I have Xine, but you can use
others.  For the Output plugin, if Autodetect doesn't work for
you, select the appropriate plugin - alsa or oss.

If this all doesn't work, then you need to go into YaST and check
your sound settings there. We can revisit if needed.


Tried all you suggested, with no results.
In Yast I see still KT266 onboardsound is default and the driver is
snd-via82xx.

Any other sugestions?



Have you tried checking all your hardware connections and physical 
settings, as I suggested?


Best regards :o)

Yes I did. I even checked it in XP, and it all worked well.

Thanks,

ATM, no.

However, let's check a few things. I've deleted your original post, so bear 
with me if you've already answered my questions.

1. You can hear normal system sounds, right?

2. Can you play sound (ogg, wav, mp3) files in any other player?

3. You pressed, play, right? :P

4. Is the Amarok volume turned up? Over on the right-side of the playlist 
window there's a volume slider. It has nothing whatsoever to do with your 
master volume and needs to be turned up as well. (This is similar to WinAmp, 
which I use on expee.)

If all the things Kai suggests fails, you may have wrong hardware 
settings.

Start by making sure that you PC speakers' volume is turned up 
physically on the physical speakers.

Have you turned up the volume on the CD player device?
Some devices have a physical volume wheel that must be turned.

Check your cabling. Have you connected the speakers to the right 
output on the computer?

Internally, have you properly connected the CD player to the main 
board's audio plug?
