I've only tried Riv with pulse audio or plain ALSA. As such killing off pulse audio is usually what I end up doing and after that I have no issues.

I've never had to mess with /etc/asound or .asoundrc.

I've got this working on a pi with raspbian and lxde (not recommended), Debian 6/7 on a normal PC and Ubuntu as far back as 10.04 with pretty much every version in between. I suppose asound may be required on other distros.

Anyone, correct me if I am wrong, but the recommended setup is to have the RD PCM streams in /etc/asound.conf in order to "assign" the card to Rivendell, and configure your own .asoundrc so that it either provides "null" output as default to your apps or route it to an additional sound card.

If you set Rivendell in your .asoundrc, your desktop manager (KDE, Gnome, etc.) will likely still pick up the default sound card and then "hog" it.

    I can login. I can  rip cds  into carts and I can import into carts
    what I cannot do is hear any sound

    by the way if I put asound.conf into  /etc my sound system
    complains that it is keeping the sound from working so instead I
    have a .asoundrc  but still no sound
