I had been using a mb with the via82c686 sound and it worked fine. I recently installed a new mb going from a 650Mhz cpu to 2.0HGhz with a via8235 sound chip. I started xmms and no sound. xmms equalizer showed activity . I check showed all modules loaded. A check of alsamixer showed master muted and 0 level. Cool I think no problem. I un-mute it and increase volume. No go, still no sound. What gives I think, out of desperation I try headphone, and lo and behold I have sound!

But, why am I having to use the headphone control in alsamixer instead of master like the 82c686 used?

In alsamixer it lists card as VIA8235 and chip as VIA1612A

Thanks in advance

Jeff
