When I was using the PPR/TCE operating mode (TC 1.0), sound worked "more or less". However, after a reboot some persistence seemed to be always needed in turning OSS sound ON/OFF several times before sound became available (e.g in YouTube -- note that the video worked fine so it's not a flash problem).
However, when sound was available it emerged not only through the headphones but also through the small speakers on the EeePC 901. In other OSes, I can use AlsaMixer to switch off the computer speakers were this to happen, however, there doesn't seem to be any equivalent to AlsaMixer in TC (although I did install both Alsa TCEs.)
Last night I switched the operating mode to PPI/TCE and now I can't get OSS sound to work at all. When I try to turn it on
a terminal opens saying "Turning sound on and loading volumes" but it never finishes. Similarly, when I try to turn sound off, a terminal says "Turning sound off and saving volumes" but it too never completes.
Any clues?
Edit: I've just noticed that now (but definitely NOT before) when I try to turn sound On or Off, a message shows up in the terminal (which still never closes) saying:
Sudo: Soundon: No command found
Sudo: Soundoff: No command found
