Whistle While You Work

[denny]

Following on from nearly an hour of trying to debug my not-quite-working sound setup yesterday on freenode's #ubuntu-uk

<denny> still no sound here... anyone got any new suggestions of things to check today? :)
<popey> have you seen the audio troubleshooting guide on the wiki denny ?
[ brief pause while a casual glance at the front of my PC turns into a look of horror ]
<denny> oh man
<denny> I just found the problem
<denny> you know how everyone kept asking me if the speakers were plugged in...?
<Ng> hehe
<denny> there's a headphone jack on the front of this machine, I never even noticed
<denny> the rear one must be disconnected
<denny> 11/10 for embarrassing :)
<popey> you dope
<denny> on the bright side, now I can listen to music while I code
<mrben> denny: can you hear that horn now?
<mrben> denny: it's your shipment of fail docking at the port....
<denny> uh huh
<denny> mock away
<denny> you can't possibly match the levels of mockery happening in this office right now :)
