Description of problem: The Logitech USB Headset/Mic works in both audio streams in RHEL 6.2 GA. The volume on the device is another matter. I can barely hear audio in no matter what I do to the hardware or software. In fact, in the "Sound Preferences" in RHEL, I can toggle between the internal and external sound outputs and the internal sounds normal and the external has very little sound at all. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL 6.2GA How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Plug in and configure USB Headset/Mic 2. 3. Actual results: Sound of USB Headset/Mic is almost non-existent. Expected results: Sound of USB Headset/Mic should be at volume levels equal to the Internal Audio Sound Source.

Try to increase the 'Speaker' volume using 'alsamixer -c 1' in terminal.
Jaroslav, thanks for the info. That worked. I can use the alsamixer to control the volume. Only when I have the alsamixer to the max settings, then I can control the "Sound Preferences" in the RHEL desktop. Why would the alsamixer have to be the "Master" control? If you have the "Sound Preferences" on the RHEL desktop, it is possible this will never work based on the alsamixer settings.

This was tested with RHEL-7.3-20160817.1 & RHEL-6.8-updates-20160817.1 and this Headset is working.
