I recently moved my computer, and after I set my speakers up again, I've had problems with outputting sound on them. It just doesn't work.

The sound card is a Asus Xonar DX. I'm running Ubuntu 15.04 with Gnome. Kernel 3.16.0-31-generic.

I get sound on it by running aplay -l, and running aplay -D plughw:2,0 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav where 2,0 represents sound card and device respectively:

**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****

  Subdevices: 1/1

  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 2: DX [Xonar DX], device 1: Digital [Digital]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

This should mean that the device is connected and working, but that the problem is with sound settings?

Alsa Information

Thanks for all help, it is greatly appreciated!

EDIT: I've tried a clean install of Ubuntu Gnoem 15.04. I still have the problem. Seems it is with Pulseaudio, that it is impossible to choose my audio device with it for some reason.

EDIT2: Thought maybe it was the infamous randomsound-issue, but found that it's not.

I have a few drives with content on, and I've added these to a media library for TV Shows. I've mounted them under /media/username and added the mounts to my fstab so they're mounted upon boot. This is what I found to be essential in the documentation from Plex.

The problem is that Plex does not find any content there, even though I can browse the files from the Files-application (and they're mounted there when the system starts.) The drives from fstab:

/dev/sdb1    /media/esso/Kilo   ntfs    defaults     0        2
/dev/sdc1    /media/esso/Golf   ntfs    defaults     0        2
/dev/sdd1    /media/esso/Delta   ntfs    defaults     0        2
/dev/sde1    /media/esso/Bravo   ntfs    defaults     0        2
/dev/sdf1    /media/esso/Hotel   ntfs    defaults     0        2

I suspect that some of the paramteres are wrong, but I can't figure them out. I've now added UUIDs as suggested.

Note that my library used to work with Plex on a Windows-installation, so I follow the naming conventions etc. Examples: eHow it looks in the terminal How it looks in Plex

All suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance.
