ALSA's default | seems to be "everything muted", and that's bitten me before. Good call! Apparrently thats what the "MM" characters on top of the volume bars in alsamixer are. I didn't even notice them before. I guess the SB Pro I have at home doesn't have a mute function because nothing happens in alsamixer on that machine when I press 'm'. <psuedo-random hypothesis> Hmm, now that I think about it, maybe that's why the "mute" button on my keyboard at home turns the volume to nothing rather than simply muting. (my keyboard at work doesn't have those extra buttons; 'hotkeys' is the handler for those events) </psuedo-random hypothesis> Thanks! -D -- Microsoft DNS service terminates abnormally when it receives a response to a dns query that was never made.
