no sound?

hi,

i'm running SuSE 8.1 with KDE 3 with an m-audio delta 1010lt soundcard.

basically, i can see the signal in the mixer panel (envy24) but there is no sound from my speakers.

the same setup works fine on my windows partition

any thoughts?

thanks in advance

hubby

are you running root? if it works in root and not in other user names then its an issue with permissions of your sound device (i get permission issues with /dev/dsp /dev/sound/mixer, the latter is really /dev/mixer so i symlink)

ok,

got sound kind of working with the opensound drivers ($50, ouch)

well to be more exact, i can play audio from the hard drive but not from my cd drive

xmms ses the cd and appears to play, no sound though

again, playing from cd works fine in windows

any ideas?

under what type of user are you trying this as?
with xmms, it might depend if you have the right codec or libs installed. id query xmms's site www.xmms.org

it seems that i should really research before posting not after!

anyway, it would seem that i need to install cdread for xmms as i don't have an analogue connection from my cd drive to my soundcard.

i plan on trying this tonight

hopefully this information may help anyone else experiencing this problem

Try this ;D

If you wanna play audio under XMMS the soundcard might no work. Try Noatun. It's the ideal player for integrated soundcards. :idea:
