No front panel audio on Suse 11.1

I am using Suse 11.1 x86 with KDE 4.1.3 I have onboard realtek sound card. My problem is that audio jacks on back panel of my cpu are screwed. So I am using front panel audio inputs and they work fine in my vista. They also worked fine in suse 11 where they were auto detected and configured. I didn’t had to do anything. Now on suse 11.1 back panel jacks work ok but there is some problem and because of that sound only comes from left speaker. This is not a OS problem its an hardware problem.
If I connect my speakers to front panel, there is no sound. I have alsa driver, its framework installed. No luck still. If you guys want some logs/ output of some command, plz tell me. I am not good with commands.:frowning:

I have used suse from 10.3 version and most of the time I found myself asking questions, facing new problems everyday rather than actually using suse.:sarcastic:
Now I have decided to go for Ubuntu ultimate. I want to thank everyone here who helped me…
I am not abandoning suse forever but I think its time for me to try another linux. I may come back to suse and I hope everyone here will be there to assist.

Most probably your audio driver is not matched !
Try this –

  1. Open terminal
  2. Type kmix and then press enter
  3. In the settings menu select “Show menubar” or press ctrl+m
  4. restart kwin

Or open yast and then try verious drivers. I thik oss would work !
Good luck !
