I have UbuntuStudio 16.04 installed on my laptop. It would nice if I
could get my default sound settings arranged so that sound works
reliably in all (or at least most) programs. At present I can choose
the correct sound card by altering settings in some programs (e.g. VLC
and Audacity), but not in others (e.g. Parole).
At the moment, I have no graphical sound setting option. When I open
Settings from the main menu, I get the usual window with lots of
options under the main headings Personal, Hardware, Audio Production,
System and Other, but nowhere is there a general sound setting option
that I can see. How can I enable this?
Fortunately, I can run 'alsamixer' from a terminal emulator. Using
this shows me that the sound card I need to address is no. 1 "HD-Audio
Generic", and not no. 0 "HDA ATI HDMI". The first item listed,
"Default", appears to be pointing to the HDMI output. How can I change
this?
