What is the output when you run $ arecord -L or $ aplay -L It should show a structured list of devices; you can probably specify one of those devices to alsamixer with $ alsamixer -D <insert device name here> Whatever the default device is, it's clearly not working. Maybe an explicitly specified device name will work. Also, here's a random question that may be only a false lead: what UID are you running alsamixer as? (I've always run it as root, and had no trouble.) -Karl ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
