[Asterisk-Users] No Audio from Console but mpg123 from shell worksfine.

Anyone have anything on this? (I'm sure someone will complain about me
bringing it up again, chill out...)

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] No Audio from Console but mpg123 from shell
worksfine.

I get audio from mpg123 at the command line but when I load up asterisk
and try to get audio from the console it looks like it's working, and
even pauses like it is playing the file but there is no audio coming
from the speakers. 

I have searched and looked through the archives and tried to fix this
but I have had no success. This is an onboard Intel card (AC'97) and I
also tried an SB Live card with the same result.

One possibility is that the volume is set to 0. aumix can be handy here.

Try simpler things, like playing wav files with 'play' of sox. 

Do you use ALSA or OSS for sound? What kernel version?

Asterisk grabs /dev/dsp . I figure you can't play anything at this
point. Though you should get stuck at trying to open it.
