why, but ALSA sometimes sets everything up muted
The logic is that someone might have headphones on or a loudspeaker turned up
high and get deafened when/if sound came on unexpectedly loudly during an
intall, so it is safe to leave people to turn the sound on knowingly. Don't
shoot the messenger. ;-)
Sometimes unmuting in KMixer is enough.
The easiest way to sort it is with pavucontrol, but that means installing
pulesaudio. <dons flameproof suti> ;-)
