Guess I cannot figure it out on my own.  I have had sound working
correctly since 11.4 install last March, but it is gone and I have not
been able to correct it.  Some guidance is necessary.
I removed all pulse*, restarted rcalsasound to no avail.  I ran 
alsaconfig
and restarted sound to no avail.  I reinstalled pulse to no avail.
There is no sound from kmix ->  settings ->  audio setup ->  test
output devices:    HDAIntel (ALC892 Analog)
        HDAIntel (ALC892 Digital)
        HDA Nvidia (HDMI 0) #3
        HDA Nvidia, HDMI 0 (HDMI Audio Output)
        HDAIntel, ALC892 Digital (IEC958 (S/PDIF) Digital Audio    
Output
        HDAIntel, ALC892 Analog (DefaultAudio Device)
        HDA NVidia (HDMI 0) #7
        HDA NVidia (HDMI 0) #8
        HDA NVidia (HDMI 0) #9
all tested w/o success
backend is set to Xine, but VLC and GStreamer were also tried w/o 
success.
HELP, please.
tks,
I have to admit, Patrick, that I am not very good at interpreting the
output such as the one which you provided above but I am guessing that
your sound is coming from a chip on-board the mobo. If so, perhaps the
chip has now failed? Also, if so, have you tried installing a sound card
or trying another sound card if the answer is No?
Nothing worse than not having sound :-( . I sincerely hope that you have
this hassle resolved soonest.

there's quite a bit of information on sorting out audio problems in 
the openSUSE forums. here's a script, per example, that checks all 
type of audio configurations and reports what is or isn't working. 
i've never used it myself i must admit, but many users seem to have 
used it successfully:

there's also an "audio-guru" who goes by the name of 'oldcpu,' who 
seems to be able to help many with such problems.
Your response is probably helpful to the OP but this is not the reason 
why I am responding to your current post.

You are using, according to the information showing in the Header, Opera 
Mail/11.51 (Linux).

Now, I really do not know if this is the reason but what I do know is 
that every message from you does not 'comply', for want of a better 
expression, with normal word-wrapping settings. For example, I have a 
widescreen monitor (1920X1080p) and yet your messages go way past the 
end of my screen. I suspect that you have some setting which sets your 
word-wrap at (?)132 characters (or more?) - or no word-wrap at all, as 
in an editor used for programming?

(While the openSUSE mail lists do not accept HTML, I don't know why your 
posts are getting thru and not being word-wrapped correctly :-) .)
