I've been following the various places people are talking about 9.1 release. The biggest bug so far seems to be what people are reporting as a bug with the SB Live! detection. This seemed a little curious to me, however.
Most describe the bug as follows: The SB Live! is detected as an Audigy and "doesn't work". Changing it to use the emu10k1 driver manually works. This seems a little odd to me. For one, under ALSA, both the Audigy and the SB Live! use the snd-emu10k1 driver. So is it possible that the SB Live! is in fact being correctly detected, and is set to use the correct ALSA driver - snd-emu10k1 - and is in fact working fine, but the problem is due to ALSA's idiotic mixer defaults? Or is there something else going on? Whatever, this bug needs to be exactly nailed down and stuck in Errata very quickly, because it might be big - the whole world and its mother has an SB Live, it sometimes seems. -- adamw
