thanks for taking the time.

I know this is probably a stupid question and maybe I'm just missing something 
really obvious, but how can I determin what device under /dev/ is my sound 
card using. 
I'm using the sound chip (Intel8x0) built into the Asus A7N8x motherboard, and 
I followed the instructions in the alsa guide on the gentoo site. my sound 
works fine from noatun, aplay, etc.. 
However I'm setting up Mythtv and I need to specify the device. Everyone on 
the mailing lists seems to have a device /dev/dsp, I don't. Many app (xawtv, 
Mythtv) look at /dev/dsp by default for sound. 

Do I have to create /dev/dsp? 

do I need to add an option to modules.conf (via /etc/module.autoload.d/alsa, 
modules-update)?

I install alsa-oss if it maters.
