Configuring the Sound Blaster Audigy 4 for Slackware 12.0 (or 12.1)

Ok, well this problem took me awhile, and there really wasn't much on google about this. The folks at LQ basically said use "alsaconf" and then mess around with "alsamixer", then save your alsamixer settings with "alsactl store". This; however, did not work for me. I did have to edit one thing on alsamixer; however, (I actually used "kmix" but they both work) by changing the Analogue/Digital output switch to "on". After that, I needed to edit the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file. So, once superuser ("su" then password) type "nano /etc/rc.d/rc.local" and insert the following at the end of the file

amixer sset 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack' 'on'
amixer sset 'Tone' 'on'
amixer sset 'Surround' '90'
amixer sset 'Treble' '80%'
amixer sset 'Bass' '80%'

and your done. After that, I was playing my music in Amarok and loving that sound finally comes from my speakers
