no sound on Toshiba nb550 / opensuse 12.3 LXDE Jan 16th 2013, 22:45 hello together I have no sound on my netbook. I now remember, that I had the same problem in opensuse XFCE 11.4. The reason is probably that there are 2 soundcards build in. card 0 for digital Sound for the HDMI port and card 1 for analog sound. I think opensuse LXDE (and also 11.4 XFCE) wants to use always card 0. I tried everything to change this in YAST (→ hardware → sound --> Index: 1 Kartenmodell: ATI Technologies Inc --> Andere --> als primäre Karte festlegen ) but it doesn't change anything. I found another solution: I created a file ~/.asoundrc and wrote pcm.!default { type hw card 1 } ctl.!default { type hw card 1 } With this trick the sound is working and all volume control plug-ins I wanted to launch in the panel appeared suddenly. In other OS like OpenSuse Gnome 11.4 Xubuntu 11.4 Debian LXDE however the sound works out of the box without the need to create this ~/.asoundrc.
