i can open a soundfile but i don't hear anything when playing back

here's a list of possible reasons and hints:

my soundcard don't show up

currently, eisenkraut has no means of finding out automatically about the connected audio interfaces. instead you must create an "audio box" manually in the audio box preferences. supercollider will print out all available devices in the console when it's booted, so you may pick up the correct device name from the console.

what happened to Process->Silence?

the same functionality is available by choosing the Overwrite edit mode and Edit->Clear.

what happened to Process->Mix?

a similar functionality is available by choosing the Mix edit mode and pasting audio. if you need to adjust the mix amount, copy first into an empty document, adjust the gain using Process->Gain, then paste in Mix mode.
