No sound from external device

Hi,

For some reason, I am not able to get any sound from my external speaker on my Acer Aspire 5738G. When I plug the speakers in, the sound keeps comming from my internal speaker. How can I fix this?

Thanks,

Harald

Please take a look at step#9 here:
SDB:AudioTroubleshooting - openSUSE

If these are USB speakers, please also look at this USB headphone article here (as it is also applicable to speakers): USB headphones - openSUSE

I’ve allready tried that, but it doesn’t work. Also when I test the HDMI device, no sound is played (neither the internal or the external speakers).
