OK, so I'm not exactly sure what you mean by 'That's right', but if you meant you built Alsa into the kernel then I'd recommend building it all as modules for now. > > > I wouldn't recommend that if indeed that's what you did as it > > just makes it difficult to get things going. > > I was wondering about that, as most of the documentation I've read is > very module-oriented. And I think for good reasons. From your and my point of view, since everyone runs modular, you should run modular until you get things working. After that you can try building it in, but not to start. > > > Also, do you see anything in the output of dmesg? > > Oh yes, forgot about that.

(rev.8) at 0xdf00, irq 10 OK, so here we have a complaint about looking for modules. Also, even if it was working, it would appear the default device #0 is the dummy device for some reason, which doesn't produce sound.

Just because there's a mistake somewhere, or we're out on the edge trying to build it in.
