Hi, this is the first time i am using Puppy. I am using it in my Sony Vaio laptop.

The problem is i am not getting any audio. I tried playing a mp3 file but i cant hear anything. Then i tried with headphone and found out that the mp3 file was playing but the sound volume is so faint that its impossible to hear if i dont press my headphones.

I tried setting the volume up in Retrovol and alsamixer but it did not help. Please suggest something. Thanks in advance.

Have you tried using the ALSA sound wizard from the Setup menu?

Yes, i did. It detected my sound card but still the problem remains. If i play anything, I can hear a faint sound only if i use headphone. On speaker that sound is inaudible...

Can you post the output of
1)
Code:
lsmod | grep -E 'snd|sound'

2)
Code:
grep -HE 'sound\-slot\-|snd\-card\-' /etc/modprobe.conf /etc/modprobe.d/*

from the console terminal ?

It looks that you have two sound cards available :

1)
snd_hda_codec_atihdmi 1603 1
snd_hda_codec_realtek 165209 1

2)
snd_hda_intel 14978 0

#***

I have no experience with two soundcards nor with DVI or HDMI .
I know that the intel sound driver works for me and would try to blacklist the ati-sound module(s) :
>MENU>Boot Manager>Blacklist .
