Got new speakers - no go. Installed pavucontrol as per
https://support.mayfirst.org/wiki/faq/pulse-debug - I can hear clicks
when I enable/disable the device (speaker with x symbol), and when I use
paplay to play a file, the VU meter is active but I still can't hear
anything.
Interestingly, when I use aplay to play a file, I also get the VU meter
active and can't hear anything.
If pulseaudio is configured to play via alsa (which it appears to be),
then the former is reasonable - but the latter isn't? If alsa also plays
via pulseaudio, is that my problem? I have a loop?
Or have I misunderstood it? I can't figure out where the config is for
either alsa or pa, so that wouldn't be surprising ...
