when i go to system preferences sound then output on the sound panel it only gives me "internal audio analog sterero" for the devices to choose from and the drop down bar only has "analog output" and "analog headphones" as options. if i go to the hardware tab in the sound menu it gives me three settings for my device "analog stereo output" "analog stereo input" and "analog stero duplex"

do you have realtek sound in your system? if so you may need to install the realtek driver to get all the options.

i had to do this after each kernel update to get all the sound options back. after you install the driver you may need a restart then all the options for sorround sound will be available :)

edit:

linky to driver (its at the bottom below the windows drivers)

actually i'd hold off on this, just tried it myself after an update, and it didnt work hmmm

Thats what used to work for me, but doesn't seem to anymore, now i have no devices listed at all.

think the kernel update has killed my sound :( (and trying to fix it i've screwed it up worse)

so im thinking complete reinstall lol, unless anyone has any ideas?

******* Crisis Averted *********
updated to kernel 3.2.9 and this restored sound and also all options in sound preferences, but ati drivers are not yet compatible with this kernel but the audio is working.

I also would like to say to theemann that my prayers and condolences go out to you m8. keep ur head up and stay blessed and gr8 work in the mitts of the trial and tribulations! i will continue to keep you in my prayers m8ty :ugeek: :ugeek: to all others on this site gr8 job and well done :vil2_reflechir :vil2_torero

Hello everybody,
regarding Surround-sound options.
I am running two Linux OS's,-Dream Multimedia2 and Ultimate Edition 3.0.1. To those who are new to the systems please be aware that other sound options don't necessarily become available till the correct hardware connections are made. That is,for example- if no external speakers are connected there won't necessarily be an option to activate external speakers. Internal audio is there by default, but other options remain hidden until/unless the user requires them.
To the experienced Linux-user this may be obvious but not necessarily to recent Windows/Macintosh migrants. For example, when I first started using Linux I expected that when I plugged in a pair of headphones the sound-settings would automatically reset themselves as happens with Windows7 & MacOS - it didn't and so I had to reset manually.
Again, for example, I recently purchased a set of wireless headphones with an infra-red USB -stick connection. There is no option for this in existing settings but an option was added after connection. I still, however had to first find and then select the new option to use it. Adding some new hardware devices like printers ,etc, only provides the option for use. Manual selection is still often required.
Again, I apologise to anyone to whom this is obvious, but although it's a basic thing, it isn't always obvious to people who have migrated from the afore-mentioned Os's.
My final point on this is that I now have the option of choosing surround-sound 5.1( though I don't use a surround-sound system ), but I didn't have it before I added my speakers. Linux, I believe, presumed I just didn't need it before.I doubt if this situation is unique to my set-up, but I would emphasise in closing, that I have both systems on a Laptop and a separate desktop and the settings options for both offered different options in both computers after the initial install.Hope this helps the newbies.. :D

P.S. DeRon1
Find the sound option under either System-settings,in menu , or under sound-settings near the volume-loudspeaker Icon in the panel, or via preferences or administration.Where it is depends on your existing settings. Once found, click on " Sound" to open sound-dialogue box , then select OUTPUT, and choose either Analogue Output or analogue-headphones/speakers ,depending on whether you want the sound via the laptop-speakers or otherwise. Be aware,though, as stated above, there won't necessarily be an option for headphones/external speakers until/unless they are manually added.
If this doesn't work, get back on the forum. Someone will solve the problem for you.
All that I am or seem is but a dream within a dream.
