Hi, I have no sound, and i get no errors related to why that i can find. I think I lost sound while trying to get it to play nicely with video. I've checked mixer settings, i'm in the audio group, i've reinstalled alsa / nvidia drivers. No luck.
Since I was working on it some months ago, i think i srewed something up deep down. Perhaps related to /dev/dsp. I'm not sure though. Any clues?

You said you get no errors. Is that mean you get no _usable_ error messages, or got no error messages _at_all_?
In the latter case, it is probable that something uses your sound card. Try running
fuser -v /dev/dsp
to see what locks the dsp. I used to get the same effect when some 'sound daemons' was sitting on the dsp, and other programs was not aware of this.

Try:
(for unmuting your card)
then use alsamixer to double check your settings. I found tkmixer to be a valuable mixer tool, give that one a try too.

I had to mute few .. umm options from alsamixer.. Before that xmms played music but there was no sound.
After i muted those options, i got sound.. But now i cant adjust volume
Since i dont have headphone plug at my speakers i had to put it to back of my computer and cus i cant adjust my volume i cant use headphones because my ears will pop since its so loud
Im at school now, i will post later when i get to home what options i muted from alsamixer.
