Hi, I recently was working to get 5.1 sound to work (SB Live 5.1), so I played around with alsamixer and it works now - just that now I have sound on my center, rear speakers and subwoofer, but not front left and right anymore... can anyone help me with this? It would be really appreciated. I googled, but the symptoms are not good search terms, unfortunately, and I didn't find anyone else with the same problem. Here is the output of amixer: Simple mixer control 'Master',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 31 Mono: Front Left: Playback 15 [48%] [on] Front Right: Playback 15 [48%] [on] Simple mixer control 'Headphone LFE',1 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Mono: Playback [off] Simple mixer control 'Headphone',1 Capabilities: pvolume Playback channels: Front Left -
