In raspian there's some way to select whether audio goes out the line out
jack or the HDMI port - I can't remember but that should be findable.

I could not get audio out of the headphone jack on the Pi, but it comes out of the monitor that has HDMI on it. I then of course got greedy and over-clocked it and corrupted the file system. grrr. I picked up a mini usb audio card a Soundblaster X-fi GO! Pro and in the boot screen it sees it and it's in the drop down menu for AUDIO SETTINGS but i cannot do anything after i select it and the whole system freezes. I am wondering if jack may help with it.

Now the patch runs fine with a whole heap of other stuff on top of that (2 sensors, 6 channel soundcard etc).  My htop reading fills me with joy-I think there's about a dozen processes including 3 shells.

Us audio bods have specific needs -  like I want mine running flat out all the time without blowing up and there's a big difference with that to someone who very occasionally pushes their RPi and wants to tell everyone that there way is the best.
