Open the volume control. Open the menus with al and down arrow to properties. Press enter.Tab until you get to a list of items. Any item that you want displayed needs to be checked. Look for line-in in the list. If it isn't checked, check it with the space bar. Then tab to and activate the ok button. Now you are back in the volume control main window. Look for line-in and uncheck the mute checkbox.

Hi again, Thanks for the instructions! Unfortunately, I forgot to mention that mysystem is running Windows XP Media Center edition, and has Sigmatel audio asthe sound device. My volume control dialog doesn't have any reference to the line-in jack. I'll dig further into my Dell system's documentation to see if I can come up with anything.

If so, open the Windows volume control, remain in the play settings part of the dialog, which is where you are placed when the volume control opens, tab until you get to line-in, find the mute checkbox which follows the balance and volume settings, and uncheck itwith the space bar.....If you are using Vista, my instructions may not apply because the volume control has changed.On Windows Vista, go to "Sound" in the Windows Control Panel then: * Playback tab * select Speakers or Headphones * Properties button * Levels tab * line input then unmute. A sighted user could use "software playthrough" in Audacity Preferences.CTRL + P > Audio I/O tab > five tabs to reach it then spacebar to check thebox and OK. Then turn on monitoring in the recording VU meter in Meter Toolbar. But this toolbar is not accessible to JAWS. In development builds "software playthrough" is also in a new "Transport"menu. Does Leland have any views if monitoring could be turned on or off inthe Transport menu, or would if have to wait until monitoring is stable enough to be always on by default?
