I got ALSA working with my Ensoniq 1371 some time ago. Recently, i've rebuilt my kernel and install a new video card and new drivers on my modified RH8 system over a 2 day period. At different times as a rebuilt the kernel, the sound system was broken and I reinstall ALSA. Once or twice, I rebuild "ALL" drivers and did a make install which was not necessarily what I wanted to do...regardless, I eventually got it working again and forgot about it...although I did break 'gnome-volume-control' as it complained about keys with bad characters in the gnome configuration structure. Anyway, i finished the video card install and now my sound system is broken again...I get sound but it sounds like you might hear it underwater.
I don't know if the mixer settings are screwed up permanently, or if the post-install and pre-remove lines in my modules.conf file are saving and removing bad settings...I did delete the .auxmixrc file but that didn't help. I've removed the libasound* from /usr/lib and tried removing the modules using the troubleshooting advice in the HOW-TO but the modules were in use...(i would have done that part again in single user mode but I didn't think that was it...) I believe my modules are built correctly. It sounds exactly like i'm running XMMS with one of those sound effect plugins for voice removal since I can barely here the voice from an MP3 but I can hear the music just fine. Although i've checked and none of the plugins are enabled. Even when i'm not running XMMS playing an MP3, the same problem occurs with a CD in the CD drive being played with cdplayer. Please any advice or pointers would be greatly appreciated! ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: FREE SSL Guide from Thawte are you planning your Web Server Security?
