troubleshooting my sound card ...
While booting knoppix complains about my sound device. I see messages scroll that look like this:
Code:
[0x82631c0] main services discovery error: no suitable services discovery module
grepHelper: File does not exists: "/proc/asound/card1/pcm0p/info"
ALSA lib pulse.c:243:(pulse_connect) PulseAudio: Unable to connect: Connection refused
ALSA lib pulse.c:243:(pulse_connect) PulseAudio: Unable to connect: Connection refused
This is what I see in dmesg:
Code:

The only sound-related cheatcode I found "knoppix alsa" didn't work on my box.
This is what "lspci -v" tells me about my audio device
Code:

How can I fix or do more troubleshooting on my sound card?

Sometimes I've had to tell Mplayer to specifically use ALSA instead of pulse-audio or default audio output in the player settings.
Then, sometimes follow up by bringing up alsamixer in a terminal, and bring up the master and sometimes the pcm levels. I run a persistent image, so the settings tend to stay fixed upon the next reboot.
