I ran into some similar problems, I think they modified the way alsa-lib is configured and made it more fine-grained. Missing an ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS setting in my /etc/make.conf, I had no plugins at all. So I suggest to check your /etc/make.conf, and if not present and you want minimum hassle, append that line to /etc/make.conf: ---snip ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw copy dshare dsnoop extplug file hooks ladspa lfloat linear meter mulaw multi null rate route share shm" ---snip (works for me) then re-emerge alsa-lib. > And here is my hardware: > [...] looks OK. -hwh -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
