Some info and a question: I went to the adobe site and found that the 
flash for Linux has been upgraded from v115 to v124. I installed that 
and it didn't help. So how do I see the undisplayed sliders? I checked 
"show all" in pavucontrol, and alsamixer show nothing but pulse, so 
where are these other sliders?

On the volume control the output output muted is the PC speaker, and the 
inputs are all enabled for all output and input devices. And output 
things like the "play" command work just fine. Haven't D/L mplayer to 
try that, but all the annoting snaps, crackles, pops, and chortles occur 
when a window is opened or closed, and when some menu items are 
selected. Other than flash the sound works fine.
