[PLUG] Resolved: No sound

[Dick Steffens]

The solution to my sound issue was not obvious. I tried rebooting with 
minimal hardware connected, and it worked. Then I stared putting stuff 
back. I got to a USB cable and sound stopped. The cable connects to my 
Ion turntable. The power was off, but when it's connected to the 
computer, it blocks sound from going to the analog output. The exception 
is that if I open the PulseAudio Volume Control I can hear pops as I  
drag the volume level slider back and forth.

So, for now I'll leave that turntable disconnected. However, I'd like to 
understand what's going on so when I do want to record an LP I won't be 
surprised. Is there some tool that will show me what took over sound 
when I plugged in that cable?
