Hi developers,
I've a Soltek DRV5 motherboard with a onboard VIA8233A/AC97 soundcard. I
downloaded the ALSA 0.9.0rc1 drivers, and tried to get the sound working with
the snd-via8233 module. The modules seems to be loading OK:
tussen root # modprobe snd-via8233
tussen root # modprobe snd-seq-oss
tussen root # modprobe snd-mixer-oss
tussen root # modprobe snd-pcm-oss
tussen root # lsmod

But when I try to play a file I get this error:
tussen root # aplay /usr/kde/3/share/sounds/pop.wav

Will the VIA8233A chipset be supported soon? There are more people with the
same problem, see also

Please can you help us?
Thanks in advance,
