hum, thx for the info about the audio cds.
i launched mixerctl -a
all is set to 128,128. i put it to 220,220, and nothing changed.

anyway, i think my card won't work for the moment. sigh.

(and you say i have two sound-cards. it is a laptop, do you really think some laptops contain two internal sound-cards ?)
