[Alsa-user] Suddenly, sound almost gone

[Moshe Y. <sp...@po...>]

While listening to music, I suddenly lost almost all sound from the box -- if I crank up the volume on the external amplifier I can faintly hear the music.

This is using alsa-base 0.9.2 with the via82xx drivers (on a A7V8X board). I was playing a series of mp3 files using xmms, with xmms set to the option of "OSS" as its driver.

Restarting alsa hasn't helped. The asound.out file seems to be normal, and besides I wasn't touching it. Any suggestions? I find this extremely weird.
