I don't know why, but ALSA seems to pick HDMI as the default card,
whether or not anything is plugged into it.

Perhaps you should run the alsa-info script from alsa-utils. That
should tell you how to run speaker-test, also in there, to get
some sound out.

In my output, I see this fragment:

!!Aplay/Arecord output
!!--------------------

APLAY

**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: HDMI [HDA Intel HDMI], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: ALC3239 Analog [ALC3239 Analog]
  Subdevices: 0/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

which means I can use any of:

$ speaker-test -D hw:CARD=PCH,DEV=0 -c 2
$ speaker-test -D hw:CARD=1,DEV=0 -c 2
$ speaker-test -D hw:1,0 -c 2
$ speaker-test -D plughw:CARD=PCH,DEV=0 -c 2

to make hissing noises. Use alsamixer alongside to set the volumes,
check mute etc. In my case,   alsamixer -c 1   starts it with the
"rich" set of controls for the internal sound.

With HDMI, I don't think the alsamixer control does much (IIRC).
I use the volume on the TV remote to do that, after setting the
correct HDMI source on the TV.

BTW1 no pulse installed here. It's complicated enough already.

BTW2 Gene, the inputs from dmesg are 8, 10 and 11. No zero.

Cheers,
David.
