[ltp] Sound problem

[Julien Tane]

Hello Alexander and Konstantin,

To my great shame, you are right.

How it comes that I muted the system, when I do not remember doing such 
a thing is a mistery to me. Moreover, perhaps the panel sound control 
tool under gnome might need to indicate that it is muted... because I 
could not have seen it right away.... But this is probably nothing to you.

But at least, I thank you. I learned a lot.  Perhaps I could have found 
and understood thngs myself... But I lack understanding of the sound 
system under linux ( and lot other things too).
If you know any good tutorial on the sound system under linux. I would 
apppreciate greatly.

Julien
