Hi Dippy,

I also have an iMac DV and I've gotten sound to work fine.  I'll write 
more in a bit (I'm on my way out to dinner) - but basically, I'm using 
the aRts and alsa systems.  I have the following lines in my 
/etc/modules.conf:

# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
# ALSA portion
alias snd-card-0 snd-card-awacs
# OSS/Free portion
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
# OSS/Free portion - card #1
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss

Get that in there and see if that gets you going.  If not - wait for my 
next installment ;)

-Brice
