<br>
I bought a pair of cheap USB speakers - "Muller M128 USB multimedia<br>
speakers". There are 2 wires - 1 with a USB connection and 1 with a "regular"<br>
3.5mm plug. When I plug in the USB connector, the speakers get power, but I<br>
see nothing in the logs (tail -f /var/log/messages) and get no sound. When I<br>
also connect the 3.5mm to my sound card, the speakers work.<br>
<br>
Is it possible that the USB plug is only for power, or do I have a Linux<br>
problem (missing driver or something)?<br>
