Hello,
I am running Gentoo on an AMD64 Sempron processor with an MSI K8MM-V
motherboard runnning a VIA K8M800 chipset. This is the lspci output about my
sound card:
0000:00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc.
VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 60)
Subsystem: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd.: Unknown device 0430
Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 209
I/O ports at ec00 [size=256]
Capabilities: [c0] Power Management version 2
The system has been running without any problems with udev-077 and alsa 1.0.9
Yesterday, I upgraded to udev-077-r1 as part of a normal 'update world'. I
shut off the system. Booted this morning only to find /dev/dsp missing and
alsasound giving errors about soundcard '0' being not found.
I tried to upgrade all the alsa packages (alsa-lib alsa-driver alsa-utils
alsa-jack alsa-oss) to 1.0.10. I have been using 1.0.9, because I get a very
very low volume, even with Master and PCM set to 100% with 1.0.10. Anyway,
even after upgrading and running alsaconf, I still had the same problem.
I decided to downgrade udev to 077, which I had been using till yesterday. It
worked, I got my /dev/dsp back and sound worked. But I still had to downgrade
alsa to 1.0.9 to solve the volume issue.
My question is, has anyone else seen this issue? Should I report this as a
bug?
Regards,
Mrugesh
