Hi there John,

   First, remember to backup config files.
   The suggestion I'd give you is to:
1 - put snd-intel8x0 in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6
2 - set your /etc/modules.d/alsa like this:
    alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
    alias sound-slot-0 snd-intel8x0
3 - rc-update add alsasound boot
4 - /etc/init.d/alsasound restart

Some programs that use OSS emulation need direct access to PCM. To do
this, I have  done the following:
1 - Create file /etc/conf.d/oss-emul
2 - Create a line for each program you want to grant permission for
direct access, like this:
    <program_name> 0 0 direct
3 - Add the following line to /etc/init.d/alsasound on the start() funcion:
    cat /etc/conf.d/oss-emul >> /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss

Everytime Alsa starts, it will give permission to the programs.

Hope this helps,

Raphael.
