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.
 

absolutly right!
