Even if you've never used PulseAudio in your life, it is probably the thing responsible for this difficulty. It seemed to think I wanted HDMI sound output, even though my computer doesn't have an HDMI socket. As Ralf says, you do need to expect this kind of thing with sid (e.g. LXDE broken and uninstallable for the last couple of weeks), and sound on Linux is, to say the least, capricious at the best of times. -- Joe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
