But by installing alsamixer & gui, I found it all turned down. Now
turned back up and its all working I think.
So problem mostly solved.
The new mail beep it turns out, is from the pc's own speaker and
unaffected by this. My hearings remaining directional senseing didn't
point that out to me right away.

Greetings all;
I had to reboot after 19+ days of uptime yesterdat, dinking around
with a new hard drive that wasn't quite new.
Anyway, since then I have only had the new mail beep from mail as
entertainment, all web video is silent movies, and even Kscd is
muted as in the volume control is greyed out.
This has all worked without a trace of pulse even being installed.
Here is my SWAG on it. This motherboard has 2 snd-hda-intel driven
systems thru the MCP55 chipset on this M2N-SLI Deluxe asus board.
My video card, is an eVga whose hdmi audio is not even bonded out,
so while it signs in when an lcpci -vv is exec'd, the only noise
its ever made is from the GeForce4 8400 GS's cooling fan, which is
typically a bearing rattling annoyance. Its an eVga, what can I
say, you buy aftermarket fans in 3 packs for them, and its on its
2nd of the 3 now.
But I think somehow that the snd-hda-intel driver has linked itself
to the no output stuff on this video card.
Since the same snd-hda-intel driver runs both, how can I blacklist
the worthless one? Can I edit something in udev.d to cause the
product number 1302 to be ignored? That might be the ultimate
hammer to drive tis nail it seems.
Comments, audio guru's?
