I have this new HTPC of mine... and I have it connected via digital optical to my amp... I cant get it to make any sound whatsoever... it's driving me crazy..,. I have installed mint 6 over a previous install of kubuntu 8.10 which had sound working no prob...
harware still works okay, tested by dual booting to xp.
I have no idea what to do??? I have every bar maxed out and unmuted in gnome-alsamixer as well as ac3 passthrough set in totem and amarok
no sound.
Please help! I don't want to go back to kubuntu, it sucks
here is some info
