RE: How to unmute the sound?



Yes. I tried to recompile because of missing sound suddenly for unknown
reason.

When I was recompiling the alsa-driver, it told me that the sound is unmated
by default. After finished installing the driver again (without checking if
sound is muted or unmated), when using "alsactl store", it returns that "no
sound card found". But the sound card is indeed there by "lspci".

In alsamixer, there's no "MM" for each volume bars. I have tried to ajust
and switch mute mode, it works pretty well. But no sound output. I don't
know why!

Thanks.
M.

In alsamixer, look at the bottom of the volume bars.  If it says "MM"
there, type M to unmute.  The volume can be adjusted independently of
whether the channel is muted.

Did the sound stop working with the new driver?  Or you tried to
recompile because of missing sound?
