(or so I am told). output from apt-get E: Unable to locate package asoundconf-gtk E: Unable to locate package asoundconf-* output from aptitude Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "asoundconf-gtk" Unable to apply some actions, aborting I already checked all those other possible issues; nothing is muted in alsamixer. And I have already tried to match up smplayer's settings with vlc's. The one advantage of vlc is that it has a very BIG and accessible drop-down menu to choose from. Settings in vlc for audio output device reads "HD- Audio Generic, ALC257 Analog Default Audio Device". In fact, I use vlc's settings to troubleshoot on other audio output that were a problem. (For example, my Focusrite Scarlett 8i6 USB audio recording interface, a new addition to the family, which is now working just fine.) Other audio output for playing music files or online radio also work just fine. System sounds (when I want to hear them) also seem to be working okay. The problem really is somewhat narrow, in that only vlc will play sound from videos; kaffeine-trinity also does that, but otherwise, no video players will play sound. Just for kicks, I tested both vlc and smplayer with music files (no video, only sound), and the results are still the same; vlc plays everything, smplayer sends an error message.
