Hi, I'm using Crux quite long but still has problems with allowing sound for firefox, mplayer and other Xapps in the same time. I'm using ThinkPad T21 and have Sound Fusion CS46xx. After some time decide that maybe esd would solve my problems. But it's seems not. I have proper modules. start esd with: /usr/bin/esd -nobeeps -trust & After setting -ao esd mplayer works fine (I have sound), but cannot get sound in flash and I can have sound in mplayer plugin in Firefox or in Mplayer. I've made some many tries that is quite hard to send all of setting related to sound and I think is better to start once more from scratch. Would you like to share your 'crux sound' settings/experience? I'm using fluxbox and have no special sound needs, have it in firefox (flash), mplayer and any mp3/ogg player.
