dCore Sound
The sound drivers are not included in the dCore kernels but can be imported through the dCore extension alsa-modules-<kernel>-tinycore. The "README"-page about ALSA provides a complete walk-through.
Further information
- The Tiny Core wiki contains several articles about setting up sound, two (one and another one) about ALSA plus one about OSS and one about PulseAudio.
- Sound management is a complicated issue. This can be seen from the fact that just about every distribution gives it ample consideration in their wiki. The Archlinux-wiki, for instance, is an excellent source of information.
Alsamixer, for instance, will show the volume bars turned up but mark a muted channel by a letter M below it. This is easy to miss (trust me, or, if not, cf. screen shot).
