Hi,
Okay, just to repeat that from my previous mail: if you build the sound drivers into your kernel, they're not considered modules. This means that anything you'd configure in modprobe.conf, modules.conf, conf.modules etc. won't have _any_ influence. Really.
YES, you are right. i saw this myself :-)
As Pavel suggested, try more low level stuff first; aplay, or cat some data into your playback device.
i tried "aplay" and it says "playing" but i do not hear anything then it gives this message: sh-3.2$ aplay beltry.wav Playing WAVE 'beltry.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Stereo aplay: pcm_write:1265: write error: Input/output error sh-3.2$ i tried google with keywords "cat audio data linux" but did not find anything on how to "cat" an audio song.
In general, there was no difference between 2.2 and 2.3 WRT sound; both work fine for me with the previously steps.
so the BUG is in ALSA drivers ? -- http://arnuld.blogspot.com/
