I don't run a server either so I am a bit nervous about asking what is probably a pretty basic question but anyway here goes. Earlier this year I did a fresh install (Debian Squeeze) and sound didn't come back so I am now trying to install OSS4, viz oss4-base, oss4-dkms and oss4-gtk. I have used OSS before and found it satisfactory whatever the ALSA crowd say about it. To start with there was no sound and I trawled the forums to get some help and adjusted ossxmix and now I have sound but only partially. osstest -- ok (with the music) cat /dev/random >/dev/dsp -- nothing .wmv file -> movie player -- nothing firefox and youtube -- nothing .wav file -> gramofile -- OK I have tried everything I can think of but I am stuck. The forums seem to assume that sound is either there or it isn't. Where do I go next?
