Hi ,
Recently installed FC10. I cannot hear music on it. Tried to
play .wav format using aplay. It plays fine without any error. But
can't hear a thing on my headphones.
Following are my settings related to alsa,

[root(a)localhost Download]# ls /dev/dsp -l

I am not getting exactly where the problem is. Can anyone help me out?

I'd start by setting that to, say, 25% (or 16384, if you want the raw
numbers)...
