screenshot showing what draksound select list should look like. The second one
is less confusing.
Hint : as most of the time you have only 2 module for a sound card, most of the
time you end up with a list with ... one item.
Both/all drivers should really be list/show specifying which one is ALSA (
check if module begind with snd- ), wich one is OSS ( if you find the alsa one,
the others are the OSS one ), with the current module selected by default and
precise which one is recommended ( just add recommended at the end as in
printerdrake )

Problem: confusing GUI.

For my hardware (G732 notebook, see greenhat.blogspot.com), harddrake shows the
module as snd-intel8x0. When I 'Run config tool' (Sound configuration =
DrakSound?) the 'Driver:' dropdown list has no pre-selected value, showing the
first listed driver (= ali5455 - not, in my case, the active driver, which is
i810_audio). I was confused by this, and wasted hours trying to re-configure the
sound system because I thought that the active driver was the one shown in the
dropdown field! I expected the current/active driver to be pre-selected, and
acted  accordingly (wrongly).
