This raises the question of what device 0 is, and whether the sound
is being routed there.

As a non-DE non-pulse user, I would run alsamixer, press F6 and
select the device 1. Then work my way along the bars, raising
levels with the arrows and unmuting with the M key.

As some applications have their own volume controls that may or
may not work, speaker-test is a useful command for a source.

Cheers,
David.

Well David, I did not describe the content of the link, but in short one 
creates as Device-0, a virtual device called Loopback, which does what 
its name is saying, it loops back to jack what was transferred to 
Device-0, the default device. So programmes not adapted to run jack, 
gets its signal connected to jack and handled by this.

OK, this is how I have understood it, my knowledge is not deep enough to 
exactly see what happens. Someone better skilled could perhaps give a 
better explanation.

By using mate-volume-control I could see that this Loopback was created 
as the default Device-0. The card itself "HDA Intel" is there too.
