Hi Kassen,
That's just plain wrong, the Mini can produce lots of sound.
I am sure it's wrong, that's why I said I was missing something. It's too obvious not to work..
My bet is that something is going wrong with the Mini's settings and connecting to the soundcard and the most likely candidate in my experience is sample-rate. I suggest having a look at the settings menu of the Mini and making sure that what's set conforms to your soundcard.
Ok. I checked the settings, which I didn't do before (stupid, yes I know). Now it works, but still something not quite right happened. First scenario: not working sr=44100, buffer_size=256, soundcard= apple's mic input and apple's build-in output. Second scenario: stopping virtual machine and restarting it worked. sr=44100, buffer_size=256, soundcard= apple's build-in input and apple's build-in output. Third scenario: back to first scenario. stop vm and restarting it. This time worked ok. Thanks, eduard
