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

My /proc/pci:

tussen root # cat /proc/pci

My ALSA version:

tussen root # cat /proc/asound/version 
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 0.9.0rc1.

Will the VIA8233A chipset be supported soon? There are more people with the same 
problem, see also http://forums.viaarena.com/messageview.cfm?catid=28&threadid=13756
Please can you help us?

Thanks in advance,

Niek van der Maas.
