I don't think RedHat 7.3 was already based on devfs. So this wouldn't apply to 
you. But you can easily find out. First of all, you'd have that devfsd.conf 
file somewhere and additionally 

ps ax | grep devfsd

should give you a line similar to this one:

   44 ?        S      0:00 /sbin/devfsd /dev

Some mails above you asked:

First thing, do 

ls -lah /dev/dsp

if this is a symlink to the real device, it should look like this:

lr-xr-xr-x    1 root     root            9 Feb 27 15:11 /dev/dsp -> sound/dsp

If it is a symlink, check the file it's pointing too. In my case 
/dev/sound/dsp. Looks like this here:

crw-rw----    1 root     audio     14,   3 Jan  1  1970 /dev/sound/dsp

You have to make sure that you can read or write to this device node. That 
means in my case I'd have to be root or part of the audio group. My user is 
the latter.

The same is true for /dev/mixer.

Since your sound is coming out of the wrong card, please post the alsa 
configuration in your /etc/modules.conf. It seems your internal card is 
loaded before your external one. That way your second sound card would be 
accessible through /dev/dsp1 or something similar.

Additionally please provide the output of lsmod.

And please have a look what sound devices are present in your /dev directory. 
Maybe some are missing.

CU,

Richard
