Lenovo X200 - Sound through headphones, no sound via speakers

heya,

I have a Lenovo X200 on which I've just installed Arch Linux.

I've managed to get KDE4 working with sound now - I tried installing gstreamer0.10-good-plugins, mp3 playback didn't work, then I installed phonon-xine, and it works now.

However, sound only plays out of the headphones when I plug one in - I can't seem to get any output from the speakers (this also applies when I use aplay to play a demo WAV, so I don't think it's a KDE specific problem for me).

Googling, I found somebody mentioned an issue here:

http://www.nabble.com/T61:-No-sound-fro … 16120.html

where the speakers were muted by default on their T61. However, I couldn't find such a control in my alsamixer

Are there any diagnostics, or any troubleshooting I can try to find out why my speakers wouldn't be working?

Cheers,
Victor

which soundcard do you use? did you install the correct drivers?
