Dear Alsa users, Since, I received no reply for my previous mail, I'm writing you people again. I hope this time I receive some guidance regarding how to make my system singing.
Well, on running 'alsamixer' command, I get this error messgae: alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory Below (at the end of the letter) is the output of following commands: output of dmesg: outout of lsmod output of cat /proc/asound/cards output of cat /proc/asound/version I hope these infos help you in getting on to the problem. If you need any more detail, please do let me know. Looking forward for your reply.
