There was a problem with the pulseaudio update. I'm not sure what caused it, but I believe it muted the master volume. Unmuting the master volume and resetting it to an acceptable level should fix the problem. There was a subsequent update to pulseaudio that didn't cause this problem. ~Kyle http://kyle.tk/ -- "Kyle? ... She calls her cake, Kyle?" Out of This World, season 2 episode 21 - "The Amazing Evie"
