Checking audio out (jack) works ok

install alsa(audio): "apt-get alsa-base"

run "alsamixer"

(needs hdmi connection to watch it most possibly, ssh seems displays not so good, but possible to do needed actions)

select "lineout" , select "M" (shows Off by default, after M -> must show On)

test sound: "aplay your.mp3"

NB: useful command to control volume level "amixer set 'Lineout volume control' 90%"
