But I would have expected some sort of error from Aplay in that case. It's probably worth checking alsamixer on the CLI. I don't know what sliders and switches are there for that card. The "external amplifier" switch sometimes causes problems, and is worth unmuting that. Hit M to toggle the switches, and make sure that sliders like "master" , "PCM" , and "front" are up. > > Thanks for any suggestion, > JeeBee.
