Most people don't have this issue, so, with respect, the question probably is "what unusual thing did you do?". Have a little patience, we'll figure this out.

Two questions...
What does the "BaseXsession=/etc/opt/SUNWut/gdm/Xsession.source_wrapper"
in
my /etc/gdm/custom.conf file have to do with sound?

I sent follow-up mail on this. For RHEL5/CentOS5, nothing. I got confused because your question coincided with a question from somebody on SLES10, where it *does* matter. The point is (and this highlights our frustration with supporting multiple Linux platforms that can't seem to do anything consistently) that SLES10 essentially broke the xinitrc.d mechanism, because they "exec" rather than "source" the files in that directory, which effectively means we can't export environment variables (such as AUDIODEV) into the user session. Our workaround for SLES 10 was to configure an Xsession wrapper into gdm that first sources our scripts, and then sources the system Xsession file.

You say you're not seeing AUDIODEV in your environment. That's why you have no sound. So either that means that those scripts weren't sourced (although they are sourced on a RHEL5 system, and CentOS5 claims to be completely compatible) or utaudio failed somehow. So please perform the experiment I requested:

By hand, run /opt/SUNWut/bin/utaudio.
Then, setenv AUDIODEV <output from utaudio>
Then, try a sound app like xmms.

This will allow us to determine whether the problem is with the xinitrc.d scripts or utaudio. Then we'll take it from there.

Also I can't get the on-board usb to work either.

Can you be more specific? What are you trying to do? What happens?

I have been dealing with the Sun Ray software for about two month now
and I've
googled myself silly and I can't find anyone that has a fool proof
solution for both issues even though Sun says the new SRSS 4.1 features are
supported. I could
not get the usb and the sound to work with SRSS 3.0.

I don't mean to be sarcastic but I' getting very frustrated.

Did you reboot after running utinstall?
Does your custom.conf file contain the necessary Sun Ray configuration
lines, such as BaseXsession=/etc/opt/SUNWut/gdm/Xsession.source_wrapper?

I get console beeps, but that's it. I can not hear streaming video (cnn.com) or hear any gnome applications sounds. Does anyone have this problems. Could anyone help. Here's some

when I echo $AUDIODEV = nothing returned I looked to see if I have /tmp/SUNWut/dev/utautio/* = no dev directory when I do a ./utsetting I get:
