OK; my  /proc/asound/cards file reads:

 0 [NVidia  ]: HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia
               HDA NVidia at 0xfe024000 irq 21
 1 [AF      ]: USB-Audio - VF0560 Live! Cam Optia AF
               Creative Labs VF0560 Live! Cam Optia AF at usb-0000:00:02.1-3, high speed
 2 [M2496   ]: ICE1712 - M Audio Audiophile 24/96
               M Audio Audiophile 24/96 at 0xac00, irq 16

and so obviously I want device 2 [M2496]  listed above, and so
from the multiple choices given to me in xfce4-mixer, I choose:
"M Audio Audiophile 24.96 (Alsa mixer)".  Still no audio.


The xfce4-mixer, then gives me a number of options, for the next four
choices:

  IEC958: (PCM Out, H/W in 0, H/W in 1, H/W in 2, H/W in 3, H/W in 4,
         H/W in 5, H/W in 6, H/W in 7, IEC958 in L, IEC958 in R, Digital Mixer)
  IEC958: (ditto)
  H/W: (ditto)
  H/W: (ditto)

and presently, I have these choices:

  IEC958: IEC958 in L
  IEC958: IEC958 in R
  H/W:  IEC958 in R
  H/W:  IEC958 in R

Still no audio.


Any help would be appreciated.  Should I be configuring things with something
other than xfce4-mixer.  I am just going for simple play back for now.  Thanks;
