Hello!

I get the following error when trying to run alsamixer to turn my sound
volume up (i.e i cant get the sound to work!)

ALSA lib simple.c:944:(simple_add1) helem (MIXER,'IEC958 Playback
Switch',0,0,0) appears twice or more
alsamixer: function snd_mixer_load failed: Invalid argument

i compiled alsa-drivers
ran ./snddevices
ran modprobe soundcore
ran modprobe snd-ali5451

also compiled and installed alsa-lib and alsa-utils with no errors

any ideas?? getting desperate over here!!

best reguards
