no sound

[rpallen]

I'm new to Porteus but have some Linux experience.
I just installed the latest Porteus lxqt to usb. In my build on the website I selected both nvidia driver options.
When I run it, there is no sound although the sound icon is in the panel and at about 75% volume.
What should I do?

In terminal: alsamixer. See what you get.

Card: HDA Intel HDMI
Chip: Intel Haswell HDMI
Item: S/PDIF

Don't you get a graph of all the devices for playback and capture?

[rpallen]

Ok, on the right are some function key options. F6 is select sound care. In this there are 3 options, - (default), 0 HDA Intel HDMI AND 1HDA Intel PCH. Selecting the first 2 options doesn't do much. In option 1 I get a set of graphs and information at the top. The information is:
Card: HDA Intel PCH
Chip: Realtek ALC269VB

Don't you get something a bit like this? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Alsamixer.png

[rpallen]

Yes. That's what I meant when I said I get a set of graphs. I only get this when I press F6 and select option 1 (not default or option 0).

[Bogomips]

Well, you can try to see if it is possible to adjust the sound with the arrow keys. See alsamixer

[rpallen]

I've tried that and though the volume levels are high, I still get no sound.
