Hi Fernando
Thanks for the tips! When I follow the steps, everything looks OK but
still no sound.
The only thing that I'm not sure whether its right or not is that the
capture screen of alsamixer has no levels - everything else looks OK - I
presume its probably meant to look this way
I'll look more closely at it on the weekend
Thanks again!
Cheers
Peter

No mixer config in /etc/asound.state, you have to unmute your card!
