The volume icon allows me to change the volume, but there are no links to the sound settings. If I right click on the volume icon and left click on sound preferences, I get a dialogue box called System Settings with just Personal Language Support, Hardware Printers, System Software and Updates. I cannot choose the type of Output and Input, Balance, Test Speakers, etc., that I normally can when I install Ubuntu. There are still no Sound Settings in the Application menu.<br></div></div>
