Re: Can't get sound to work

Hi all,

this is my umptieth Debian installation I've done on various PCs over
the years, but this time the sound setup really has me stumped. I can't
hear anything unless I use aplay with -D hw:0,0 but setting that in the
configuration file doesn't help. No other sound-outputting program
works. Here's a shell excerpt:

bl@dotcom:~$ aplay test.wav           # can't hear nothing
bl@dotcom:~$ aplay -D hw:0,0 test.wav # this plays sound
bl@dotcom:~$ cat .asoundrc
cat: .asoundrc: No such file or directory
bl@dotcom:~$ cat /etc/asound.conf
pcm.!default {
         type hw
         card 0
         device 0
}

What happens if you remove /etc/asound.conf?
