Thread: SB LIve 5.1 card plays FLV sound but not mp3

i have installed ubuntu 9.04 recently. able play sound flv files, wav, mp3, mpeg files not produce sound. video plays in gmplayer or totem. in "volume control->switches->sb live analog/digital output jack", if toggle tick (select it) weak sound (with lot of noise) can heard mp4 files. there no sound mp3 (or @ least can't understand in noise) @ all.

output "aplay -l"
