[AG-TECH] Soundblaster Live! input routed to output?

[Michael Miller]

Dwight,

I just wanted to check that you did open alsamixer and mute the "Analog 
Loopback" setting.  The mixer doesn't always show you all the sliders at 
once.  Make sure you move to the right as far as you can go.  That's where 
I found the loopback setting for my cirrus based card.
