Either you do not have a speaker/headphones connected to the analogue output or the analogue sound is muted.

To check if the sound is muted:

$ alsamixer
press the "F6" key and choose you analogue sound card
check if the sound is muted and, if so, un-mute it

I did not get a positive result from your suggestion!

interenet search

Did alsamixer show the analogue sound was un-muted?

Can you post a screenshot of the alsamixer display - use F6 and choose the analogue device before taking the screenshot

Apparently there is a column named "<Channel>" furthest to the right that you have to change to "6ch"

There is also an "<Auto-Mute Mode>" that you could try setting to "disabled"

As per google, some have had more success with pulseaudio - if you're lucky, pulseaudio might give some clues as to how to configure alsa...

I don't know the commands.
It may make sense to work with a face with a volume control panel, such as Windows OS.

I am thinking of using xfce.
TCL with grassroots level from xfce
I want to recreate TCL

Which of these commands should I change!

Code: [Select]
$ tce-load -wi graphics-4.19.10-tinycore64 alsa-config Xorg-7.7 xf86-video-ati firmware-radeon flwm wbar aterm alsa

$ speaker-test -Ddefault: 1 -c2 -t wav -l1

How should this code be for xfce installation!?

The two commands you list are correct for your hardware and alsa.

The output you got from the speaker-test command indicates that your analogue sound is working, but muted - that is why I made the two suggestions for alsamixer.

Using xfce is unlikely to help with your problem.

If you would like to try pulseaudio, you can use the following commands:
Code: [Select]
$ tce-load -i graphics-4.19.10-tinycore64 alsa-config Xorg-7.7 xf86-video-ati firmware-radeon flwm wbar aterm alsa pavucontrol
$ sudo /usr/local/etc/init.d/dbus start
$ startx

Then double-click on the pavucontrol icon, which will start pulseaudio.

You can then use, for example, xmms-pulse to play an audio file to test your setup.
