Thanks.. I have done that now and it said my user is added but I still get
no sound as root.  I will keep your info for future installs because I see
another one coming up :)  The CD spins and the status command even says it
is Playing with how long into the the song but no sound.  And doh! I have
checked the hardware connections :)

Just discovered as I typed this e-mail that the sound works at the jack on
the front of my cdrom.  Maybe it is a hardware thing.

Cheers Al

Hi,

Did you add yourself to the audio group (assuming that the modules are
correctly loaded) ?
adduser your_login audio
with the root account.

Later.
