Hey' Sound is very distorted and buzzing with alsa-1.0.1, and current cvs (pserver) on my soundblaster-128. The default slackware-9.1 (alsa-0.9.6) did not have this problem. I'm using linux-2.4.24 and the oss es1371 driver sounds OK.
Don't hesitate to ask for more info, get me to try fixes, etc - anything to get my alsa back ;-) /etc/asound/driver_args: ================== --with-debug=full --with-isapnp=no --with-sequencer=yes --with-oss=yes --with-cards=ens1371 /proc/asound/cards: =============== 0 [AudioPCI ]: ENS1371 -
