[Pianod] telnet volume

[darren]

Thanks.  I got tones.  I had been to the audio section of raspi-config.  I
thought I had it set correctly because I was able to play mp3's.  But, come
to think of it, that might have been on my A+.  I would have assumed the
setting was stored in a config file on the card and would persist to the
new Pi?  Maybe not.  I don't know.  Anyway, I forced HDMI and got sound.

I'm not using a gui for anything yet.  I did install lighttpd and set the
document root to the HTML directory in the source folder.  I can navigate
to it.  But, I haven't figured it out yet.  Everything I've done so far has
been via the command line. Is the web client what you meant by "client
running"?
