Installed from 9.11 LiveCD, no sound

Thanks for reading Big Grin

I read thru all 10 pages of the PulseAudio sticky post. Didn't find the answer there. I have the latest 260 NVidia drivers installed and XBMC is config'd for smooth 1080p playback. That part is cool. However, I get no sound. In the past, I had a full Ubuntu Lucid desktop install, then installed XBMC on top and I was able to see my sound card in XBMC and had sound working. I just installed on a clean machine using the 9.11 LiveCD and I can't get XBMC to see my USB sound card.

Here is my XBMC log...

aplay - l returns...

**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 1: default [USB Sound Device ], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

I can't even get alsamixer to start. I get this error...

alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory


Is there a post you can point me to to fix this?

Thanks a lot for your advice. I'm spinning my wheels Huh

has this ever been resolved?

I tried the xbmcfreak version (9.11 v14) on my jetway minitop and most everything work out-of-the-box except sound.

I know there are more in depth ways of getting dharma on there, but I want to stick with something that mostly works from the original iso. That way if the harddrive craps out six months from now, I can get back up pretty easily.
