1) The gnome-alsa configuration error might be occuring if you have BOTH
Ensoniq and Nvidia.  (Someone helped me get search terms correct to get
the archived post of ancient fix).

SOLUTION: Manually change all sound outputs to be single such that only Master 
is available. This is in both system --> pref. --> sound, and in volume control 
--> preferences. 
--> Note: I do not know if Skype will work and other devices will work with 
this setting, as I've not gotten Skype yet on this desktop. Plus, I'm not the 
one you want testing this due to the brain damage I have. 

2) Upgrading to 9.04 does get sound if you do all the how-to steps but
will not fix Gnome-alsa mixer error.

3) I do now have sound and radio playback. I finally found the 3rd
headphone jack port which does work. The other to headphone jack ports
will only work if you use cd or dvd apparently (and is not like the Mac
I'm used to.)

I'm considering this solved from my end, but from your end,
reconfiguration of set-up might be cool? :D

only beeps sounds even though entries recognized. pref. sound test never works.
