What software or hardware is using sound? One possibility is that the sound hardware/driver is in use by something that doesn't release it on quit, similar to a 'cannot empty trash, file is in use' problem.
If that isn't helpful, sound settings are stored in PRAM. The forbidden resource offers these suggestions: - Clear parameter RAM by holding down Command-Option-P-R during startup, but before the welcome screen - (shutdown) - Reset Cuda chip - Reset logic board by removing the battery for at least 10 minutes. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
