Public bug reported:

at the gdm screen, or when the gdm screen starts, there is a quick half
a second drum sound that only SOMETIMES works. this might not seem like
a big deal but it's actually a much bigger problem. whatever sound
application that sound clip is relying on is apparently not working
because the sound for other applications are not working as well. so...

when i hear the drum sound, everything works perfectly fine.

when i don't hear the drum sound:

1. amarok doesn't play any sound using the oss sound engine. however, it works 
with alsa and esd.
2. mplayer32 doesn't play any sound at all.
2. most importantly, mednafen does not have any sound. i posted in the forum 
there as well, http://forum.fobby.net/index.php?t=msg&th=296&start=0, which is 
where i found out about this problem.

i tried following these directions,
http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_configure_sound_to_work_properly_in_GNOME,
and that did not help.

this problem started when i first switch to linux a couple months ago
with edgy eft. and it still pursues with feisty fawn. i used the 64 bit
version of both OS's.

my sound card is "Creative Sound Blaster Audigy2 ZS Platinum 7.1
Channels PCI Interface Sound Card" and it works great otherwise!
