Run

Code: Select all

alsamixer

and press

Code: Select all

F6

and select your usb sound card.

You need to be using Mix B for your output channel, navigate with arrow keys and page up/ page down

Note:

if your alsamixer is crashing restart the usb device.

adjusting the volume here seems to stop the output of sound through the headphones.
