OK. This is funny as heck. I ran this. I really need to reverse my |
| 33 |
speakers. Anybody remember the old cartoon where the guy had the shirt |
| 34 |
sleeves marked left and right? lol I guess I need to do that too. |

For the record, I had to use alsamixer to unute mine too. It was the |
| 37 |
master that was muted which mplayer has nothing to do with, at least not |
| 38 |
on my system anyway. |
