The fact that direct CD playback is in stereo does not necessarily mean that ALSA is correctly configured for stereo playback of sound files. A better test is: speaker-test -t sine -c2 This command should produce a (rather boring) sine wave output which switches between left and right channel every few seconds. Does that work? -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
