i did this 4 command:

amixer set Master 100 unmute
amixer set PCM 100 unmute
amixer set Center 100 unmute
amixer set Surround 100 unmute

but i always had an error (amixer: Unknown playback setup 'unmute'..), so i found somewhere on this forum that i could do the same command withtout the unmute

thx for help

Open up a terminal, and type lsmod. It shows any modules that you currently have loaded, and some info about them.

EDIT: Audigy2 looks like a new card... It might not be supported yet (though I doubt it..)
Maybe post your /etc/modules.d/alsa file?

It seems that /etc/modules.d/alsa should be fine, but post it anyway..
Also, what does amixer say?
