subject: Problem: No sound outof t

Hello all,

Problem: I cannot get sound outof of the audio-jack.  :-(

Using "speaker-test" the HDMI output does give sound.  Currently I even have
set "raspi-config" to force sound over the audio-jack, but it seems to gets
ignored.   Right-clicking the loudpeaker icon in the top-right of my display
I can select "analogue" and "hdmi", but it goes over hdmi every time (also,
the volume alwas drops to near-to-nothing when I select something, and the
tickmark is gone whenever I reopen the box)

I've tried to google for solution, but didn't find anything (other than a
"reinstall your OS" suggestion).

Board: 3B+
OS:  NOOBS v3.2.0 (not sure which Linux version)

Bonus question:
Using Python I printed a "\a" (which google said would generate a beep), but
got nothing (other than displaying a "landline telephone" character).  Is
there another way to generate (a simple) sound using Python (other than
shelling to to an external program I mean) ?

Regards,
Rudy Wieser
