Pierre,
I just reconfigured/updated and moved the computer. Seeing your thread,
I tested, found no sound--panicked. Followed your testing proc--no joy.
Then, plugged headphones directly into sound card--beautiful sound. My
extension cable was bad. Try all the simple things. I hope your
solution proves as easy.
