I am sorry to confess that I should use M to unmute a channel in |
| 31 |
alsamixer (as I did about 14 years ago) and thought that arrows up and |
| 32 |
down do all the work. :( |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
So, now the problem has been solved and I can return to the custom kernel. |

One last question: Is it better to compile the driver for my HDMI |
| 37 |
audio device or not, if I am not going to use HDMI audio output? |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
And thank you all who replied to this thread. |
