Last week I had xmms 1.2.7 with the alsa-xmms-0.9.11 plug-in running on
RedHat 8. I upgraded to RedHat 9 and rebuilt xmms and the 0.9.4
alsa-{driver,lib,utils}. Now, with with ALSA 0.9 output plugin
(libALSA.so) selected in xmms, I can play mp3 audio, but I hear no
sound. What's suspicious is that although I have a /dev/dsp0 device with
the correct permissions, when I run alsamixer there's no PCM volume
control displayed. amixer complains when I try to set volume and unmute
the PCM device:

$ amixer set PCM 100 unmute
amixer: Unable to find simple control 'PCM',0

When I was using ALSA with RedHat 8 there was a PCM control in alsamixer
and this is what I used to control volume in xmms.

So, it looks like I have a problem with a pcm-* module. Curiously, lsmod
shows snd-pcm-oss and snd-pcm modules as being loaded. I've included the
output of lsmod below.

Any suggestions as to what to try ? It's kind of quiet here !

Thanks,

Nigel
