I recently upgraded my MB to a Tyan Thunder K7X Pro and now I'm having problems with sound in MDK 9.1. I'm using the same sound card as before (SB live) and same MDK version (stock kernel). Here's a description of what happens:
After a reboot sound players like xmms will lock up when attempting to play a sound file. I can get sound to work by killing the app and kmix, restarting alsad and soundd, then restarting kmix. Strangely, kmix has the master and PCM controls muted when I restart it at this point. Unmute and sound works with one glitch: If I try to adjust the volume from xmms, the sound stops. Twiddle the PCM control in kmix and sound comes back. Any clues as to what might cause this strange behavior? Would a kernel upgrade fix this? -- Thomas K.
