Comment 13 for bug 939593

Ramesh,

The test procedure briefly explained in the first message of the bug
report. Lets make it more explicit:

1) Wait until the user interface has fully booted
2) click on the volume icon up right in the screen
3) select "sound settings" from the popup screen
4) select "hardware" tab
5) select test speakers
6) press on the "test" buttons under speaker buttons

A sound "left speaker" or "right speaker" sound should be heard.

Pulseaudio is used by default so no specific configuration or setup
should be necessary for pulseaudio testing.
