PC's speaker not functioning

English Multimedia
#1

Hello,

Yesterday I installed openSUSE 11.3 on a desktop PC and I noticed that the PC’s speaker it’s not functioning but if I plug the headphones I can hear the sound system working.

Just a thought - open the sound mixer, select channels and drag across the ‘master front’ and take the tick out of ‘mute’

Please also note the guidance in our multimedia stickie:

This is about system-beeps, right? There should be a slider in your mixer called ‘beep’ or likewise. In KMix (KDEs mixer app) this slider is disabled by default and has to be added first via the settings.

I tried with master front and also with beep but I didn’t work.

I have the same problem on my netbook, Asus 1000H, with opensuse 11.3; but it’s not always like this. Sometimes i can have the speaker working but sometimes just the headset works.

Also I have the same problem on my openSUSE 11.2. Here is the output of my alsa-info.sh : http://pastebin.com/kcfa2Aqq

That’s a blessing. I’ve just disabled my pc speaker (distinct from sound hardware) with ‘blacklist pcspkr’. Sytem event sounds are annoying IMHO.

my pc speaker does not function too.
I have set down in KMix, but it does not work either!
In terminal, I type
> xset b on
> xset b 100
But the speaker does not work!
