That's what I tried after reading your mail: $ apt-cache policy libasound2 libasound2: Installed: 1.0.11-6 Candidate: 1.0.11-6 The problem is: with libasound2 1.0.11-6 I cannot even *start* alsamixer: ------------------------ $ alsamixer ALSA lib control.c:816:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL default alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory ------------------------- ---------------------------- $ alsamixer -c 0 ALSA lib control.c:816:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL hw:0 alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for hw:0: No such file or directory --------------------------- amixer: ------------------------ $ amixer -dD controls ALSA lib control.c:816:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL controls amixer: Mixer attach controls error: No such file or directory --------------------------- But the last 2 examples may hint amixer at least sees some sound card: --------------- $ amixer -c 1 controls Invalid card number.
