Hmm it is too complicated for me. This model of SB doesn't have front panel connections. Anyway I can use it by choosing surround 4.0 but when using surround changes in volume of Master chanel don't change the volume of surround. Is is possible to force Master to control surround level. Don't know if it is important but I use KDE and gnome alsamixer. 2014-11-21 16:31 GMT+01:00 Raymond Yau <superquad.vortex2 at gmail.com>: > > > > > output of alsa-info.sh > >http://pastebin.com/Kmd2J2Bq > > > > >you may need to find out whether rear jack support mono or not > > > > It is old so it is hard to find detailed specification.
