OK, the sound in xmms continues to work.
No sound in firefox (youtube).
No sound in the control center test sound, though all the ALSA mixer stuff looks right.so, I followed skidoo’s advice, start googling, and quickly after seeing many things (of course mostly irrelevant) one used lspci to see the devices.
So I ran this in the beta2 and MX-18.3. This may be a new Buster thing, the AMD chipset drivers.
for the beta2

hi entropyfoe,
Does the other applications like smtube or mpv-youtube have sound?
Could this be the key difference? Maybe one works the other does not.not sure on how mx does kernel configs–don’t run it. My onboard audio chip is
older than yours but seems to be ok. So I’m leaning towards a alsa/audio config
since works in one program and not others. But could be a kernel config or a
bug with the newer amd chipsets and the drivers.
Xecure
I opened xmms, opened the little square in the upper left, selected options -> preferences. It has the first tab, Audio I/O plugins.
The output plugin was ALSA 1.2.11 output plugin [libALSA.so]. I clicked the configure button, selected the audio device , it was set to default with Realtek options analog and digital below. I selected the analog. Then the Audio device shows as hw:1,0. I clicked OK, then apply on the preferences window. Click OK, and now ……Voila, sound emerges from the speakers !
I have read through your threads again. You never displayed the output of
aplay -l
The answer was there all along.Could this be the key difference? Maybe one works the other does not.
After your testing, we now know that it is NOT related to the drivers, as XMMS plays music. Also, using XMMS, you already found the answer to permanently fix your problem.
Then the Audio device shows as hw:1,0
What this means:
Card 1 – Device 0If you go back and edit asound.conf as you did before (or better than modifying /etc/asound.conf, create a file named .asoundrc in your home folder) and add the card and device information:
defaults.pcm.card 1 defaults.pcm.device 0 defaults.ctl.card 1Now audio should work system-wide.
Please check if this fixes your problem.If this is it, I think a new gui should be created to select Sound Card and Device (and save the choices in ~/.asoundrc). I will have to check how MX does it (and use their gui instead of creating something new).

XMMS still plays sound.
Yes, because it is not using the default sound card but instead the one you manually selected.
But no sound on youtube
Is it Firefox-esr or firefox? (I think new Firefox needs pulseaudio). Have you tested using a different browser?
or from the Control Center Test Sound, it just flashes by too fast to read anything. (Before it would run the test channel by channel)
If it flashes, then the device I sugested is wrong.
Poste here aplay -l so we can see what device number it has for your audio jack output. XMMS seems to think it is Device 0 (as i quoted above), so the change in asound.conf should be correct.Can anyone else who has more than one sound card help with the matter? How does antiX 19b work for them? When they change card and device, does changing the asound.conf file work for them? I cannot test it myself as my devices only have 1 sound card and when I plug in my headphones, audio output changes automatically (and it only shows as one device in aplay -l).

Ignore my previous answer. The reason it works so easily on MX is because of Pulseaudio.
Try to install pulseaudio on your system:
Control Center > System > Package Installer
Search for pulseaudio. Install that package.Modify Volumeicon (in the systemtray) to use pavucontrol (you may need to restart).
For some reason, I couldn’t get pulsaudio to autostart, so I went to the terminal and did:
pulseaudio --startNow right click the volumeicon and click “Open Mixer”
If pavucontrol does not load, go to the terminal
pavucontrolNavigate to Configuration tab and select the Analog Stereo Output (or whatever is your device).
Now try youtube.
Everything now should be set as your MX system.
Let us know if this works.

Xecure,
Wow good lead…
I did the pulseaudio install, and pulseaudio –start
then pavucontrol pulls up a window where I can select a tab output devices, and select the Family 17h (Models 00h-0fh) HD Audio Controller Analog Stereocontrol, set to 100%. The above it HDMI2 I have set to silence.XMMS still plays. But I loaded audacity, and it does not play sound.
It to like XMMS has a preferences, so I looked in there, and now there is a new option pulse…so I selected it, and now it plays sound.So far three for three.
I should see if this all sticks after a reboot? Do I need to get this pulseaudio –start and select the pavucontrol set to auto start in some file.So, pulse audio works. How can this auto setup in antiX, so it just works? But I am learning that there a lot to this sound stuff !
Or what other part needs to be debugged.I’ll reboot now…

How do I
“Modify Volumeicon (in the systemtray) to use pavucontrol (you may need to restart).”You probably figured this out already, by your later reply, but still I will explain for other people who may read this topic in the future:
Right click on the volume icon on the system tray, select Preferences, and change the external mixer.
It initially said:
desktop-defaults-run -t alsamixer
Change it to
pavucontrolSo far three for three.
Great news! Yesterday I explored how MX linux manages audio and saw they used pulseaudio. I then spent some time last night testing different things out with pulseaudio. I got my laptop set up to a TV screen through HDMI and changing the .asoundrc file didn’t help with getting audio out of the TV (I am sure I used the correct card and device numbers), but changing parameters in pavucontrol, as you did, enabled sound output to HDMI, and the TV speakers spoke! I guessed that pulseaudio manages “somehow better” the audio device selection.
I should see if this all sticks after a reboot? Do I need to get this pulseaudio –start and select the pavucontrol set to auto start in some file.
I am not sure, but I think I remembered trying this out in antiX 17 some months ago and after installing pulseaudio, it would work out of the box (though maybe it is my imagination).
For now, you will have to add a line in the antiX startup file so that pulseaudio starts after boot. Go to a terminal and type:
geany ~/.desktop-session/startup
It will open the startup file in the Geany editor. Add the next lines wherever you like (for example, under the fbxkb startup line)#Start pulseaudio pulseaudio --startSave and exit. Now, on every reboot, pulseaudio will start, so your configuration will always work.
So, pulse audio works. How can this auto setup in antiX, so it just works?
I have tried some things and, if the preferences haven’t been touched, for most cases the apps work with pulseaudio once it is installed and started (and the audio device is configured). For me at least no more changes were needed. Hopefully, only very few programs need to be configured as you had to do with audacity.
For MX, it should work out of the box.Good news we found a work-around.

The setting of wallpapers has some issues.
I will start with recommendations on making wallpaper setting more
consistent and easier. And then cover the current process of setting
wallpaper and its problem.The recommendations:
o Group set wallpaper by Window Manager. So the same wallpaper
would be set for the active Window Manager, be it Icewm, Fluxbox,
or JWM. The same theme is used for a given Window Manager, so it
make sense to use the same wallpaper.Also, give the user the option to set the same wallpaper across
all Window Managers.o Let the user know in the Choose Wallpaper app their current
Window Manager and Desktop Manager (if used) environment. And
give them information on setting or not being able to set the
placement mode for the wallpaper based on their current
desktop environment.o For convenience put an option in Menu -> Desktop to change the
wallpaper.The following issue came about when I changed my wallpaper to:
dark_city_small_gold_moon.png
using the Control Centre, Choose Wallpaper application.
My desktop/window manager was set to “space-icewm”.
Here is information about my graphics:
$ inxi -G Graphics: Device-1: AMD RS482M [Mobility Radeon Xpress 200] driver: radeon v: kernel Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.4 driver: ati,radeon unloaded: fbdev,modesetting,vesa resolution: 1280x800~60Hz OpenGL: renderer: ATI RS480 v: 2.1 Mesa 18.3.6As shown above, the screen resolution is 1280×800.
The “dark_city_small_gold_moon.png” does not scale cleanly to that
resolution. From the first attachment below of the screen print image,
you can see the moon is distorted into an oblong shape.After some research, discovered “spacefm” allows changing the “mode” in
the way the wallpaper is placed on the screen. But the command line interface
for “spacefm” which is used by “Choose Wallpaper” app, does not support
changing the “mode”.Brought up “spacefm” file manager window, clicked View -> Preferences,
and then the Desktop tab. Changed the Mode from “Stretch” to “Zoom”.
The first time I did this, “spacefm” requested the Administrators
password (my password) before making the change. Changing the mode
solved the oblong moon problem. See the second attachment below.I could not find a way in the “rox-icewm” window manager/desktop
environment to change the mode, so the moon remained distorted.But when using “icewm” by itself with no desktop manager (space or rox),
the Choose Wallpaper app provides a drop down list containing (scale,
center, fill). Selecting ‘fill’ corrects the oblong moon problem.The wallpaper “antiX-galaxy.jpg” has the same distortion problem with
its image of the earth.
christophe
model99, I also have 1280×800 res., so I see what you mean. I think this is what you want – how to configure those options in an easy way:
From the applications menu, if you select preferences -> wallpaper, you can set the wallpaper to “fill” instead of “scale,” which will make the moon round.
(Also, you could use a graphics program like mtpaint or gimp to re-scale the images down to 1280×800.)From Control Centre -> Session -> User Desktop-Session -> wallpaper-list.conf, here you can set the default wallpaper for each session.
I hope this helps.

Model99, I don’t know if this is the right answer or not, but what I did was to take what noclue created, and tweak it to where it fits from 800×600 up on rox-icewm.
I figured anti must have liked the lines idea, and must have liked the clearview-blue-med, or he wouldn’t have chosen that combo, so with that general thought in mind, I tried to tweak those things to work together on all 3 desktops at the minimum resolution (from Skidoo’s comment that we should make it work right on a wide range of hardware for the desktops that come installed). I see no reason the blueday or other themes shouldn’t come with, but I happen to like the brighter desktop myself, and think it’s looks deserve consideration. On IceWM, I added an antiX labeled menu button as well as the memory monitor, and tweaked the IceWM settings to use less CPU than the conky, because I think that with all the monitors on the status bar, the conky isn’t really required, and on an older machine, that will save memory and CPU. Here are screen prints:
… tweak it to where it fits from 800×600 up on rox-icewm.
Are there any ‘tweaks’ necessary to make Lines working on 800 x 600 Px screens???
… but I happen to like the brighter desktop myself, and think it’s looks deserve consideration.
Why don’t you use the brighter one then?!
It’s a couple of clicks away … 😉From Control Centre -> Session -> User Desktop-Session -> wallpaper-list.conf, here you can set the default wallpaper for each session.
Thanks for that information.
I changed all of them to dark_city_small_gold_moon.png.
model99@antix1:~/.desktop-session $ cat wallpaper-list.conf fluxbox=/usr/share/wallpaper/dark_city_small_gold_moon.png rox-fluxbox=/usr/share/wallpaper/dark_city_small_gold_moon.png space-fluxbox=/usr/share/wallpaper/dark_city_small_gold_moon.png icewm=/usr/share/wallpaper/dark_city_small_gold_moon.png rox-icewm=/usr/share/wallpaper/dark_city_small_gold_moon.png space-icewm=/usr/share/wallpaper/dark_city_small_gold_moon.png jwm=/usr/share/wallpaper/dark_city_small_gold_moon.png rox-jwm=/usr/share/wallpaper/dark_city_small_gold_moon.png space-jwm=/usr/share/wallpaper/dark_city_small_gold_moon.pngAny of the above that begins with “rox”, still shows an oblong moon.
All the rest show a round moon.
Is there any way in Rox to set the wallpaper placement mode to the
equivalent of ‘fill’ or ‘zoom’?Model99, One way I know to change it to fit would require without distortion would require starting with a picture that has the same aspect ratio as the screen you want to fill.
In other word, cut the moon out of the pic, resize the pic to the size you want (or an even percentage of it on both sides), and then paste the round moon back in.
The problem you are having is that its needing to expand the picture more in one direction than the other, and distorting the round object as a result.
