Ok. Pulseaudio is no longer in the equation, and you have sounds from Amarok, 
but not from other audio apps.

I don't know which soundcard you have, but the output from the following 
commands may be helpfull.
cat /proc/asound/cards
cat /proc/asound/version
/sbin/lsmod | grep snd

Open alsamixer in Gnomes terminal as user, and check for muted controls, and 
sliders that are at zero. The usual controls are Master, PCM, Front, and CD. 
(the "M" key does the mute/unmute).

You say that Xine, Mplayer, and Firefox have problems with sounds. Let's look 
at one at a time. What are you trying to play using Xine?

Just a tip, but would you post to the list in plain text if possible, rather 
than HTML, and post your replies at the bottom of the previous post, which 
makes it easier to follow the conversation.

Nigel.
