Yes, I did check the settings in alsamixer before posting. Master, Master Mono, Headphone, PCM, Line,CD, Mic, Phone, Aux are all 100% and unmuted. Heaphone Jack Sense, Line Jack Sense, Mic Boost, External Amp are all 0 and I can't increase their volume or mute them. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
