Maybe you missed some mixer controls? Desktop environments nowadays commonly use (not only ALSA but also) Pulseaudio, and a common mistake is to only play with the knobs tied to ALSA. One relatively userfriendly interface to Pulseaudio that I know of is pavucontrol, available in the Debian package of the same name. You can run it as a self-contained graphical tool, or if you want it handy accesible then additionally install pasystray. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
