Downgrade is bad when you upgrade the kernel. Reverse! alsaconf is not that reliable - it most probably does not recognize the ati model and can not configure. It got too late I have to go to bed, so I won't be "available" to guide you further but you can google or read the documentation. I would update to current level of alsa (libraries and utils). reboot is good for alsa. But may be before reboot try to set a config file for your card in modprobe.d as described in the other mail. I guess in 2.6.26 the workaround you mentioned (alsactl -init) is just configuring the driver for your ati chip or may be the chip itself. Putting configuration in a file would configure all your sound cards the same way everytime. I recommend this because I'm using usb camera, mic etc and if you plug them in different order they occupy different sound slots which has the effect that you have to change devices in apps. However this is changing now, but until the metamorphosis is complete tell the system which card should be #0,1,2 etc. I'm sure there is useful information you can find with google for your specific card. Many things have changed (especially HDMI support) in recent alsa, so I guess the issue is that now finally HDMI for you card is also supported. Of course it could be also a bug in the kernel code and then you should downgrade the kernel and wait for fix. regards -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
