Sometimes I have to boot up the computer a second time to get sound from anything. On checking ALSA by:
# alsamixer -c 0 I see that when sound is not working the Alsamixer is showing incomplete only one of the sound controls appears instead of seeing the Master and all the regular other sound adjusters. Also ALSA is choosing the USB Webcamera instead of the Sound card. After rebooting the sound is as normal! The Alsamixer shows as it should with Master Sound and all the sound level adjusters in place and nothing muted. Is there a way of making Mandriva 2009.1 select as default the sound card each time on boot up avoiding reboots? Pulse sound is disabled so as to allow Skype to work properly with # LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype. ALSA lib conf.c:3952:(snd_config_expand) Unknown parameters CARD=CMI8738,DEV=0 ALSA lib pcm.c:2202:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM front:CARD=CMI8738,DEV=0 I have included part of what shows to show where the sound card is installed. # [r...@localhost ~]# lsmod | grep sound sound core 8256 1 snd # [r...@localhost ~]# lsmod | grep audio snd_usb_audio 85376 0 snd_usb_lib 16644 1 snd_usb_audio snd_hwdep 7656 4 snd_usb_audio,snd_hda_codec,snd_hda_codec,wavefront,snd_opl3_lib snd_pcm 84616 8 snd_usb_audio,snd_cmipci,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_cs4236,snd_wss_lib,snd_pcm_o ss snd 63812 23 snd_usb_audio,snd_cmipci,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_cs4236,snd_mpu401,snd_wavefront,snd_wss_lib ,sndopl3_lib,snd_hwdep,snd_mpu401_uart,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device,snd_pcm_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_ mixer_oss usbcore 188432 7 snd_usb_audio,snd_usb_lib,gspca_zc3xx,gspca_main,uhci_hcd,ehci_hcd # [r...@localhost ~]# Any ideas on how to avoid any clashes and that Mandriva loads each time the ALSA sound correctly?
