Well, once the module is loaded, the alias has no influence anymore. Thus if you load the proper modules with modprobe, and don't get any sound, the aliases won't help. Again, reading the man pages for modprobe and its configuration would have told you that. > any ideas on getting sound working ? The following three steps have worked fine for me: 1. compile proper kernel (alternatively, add alsa-driver if you prefer to use those over the in-kernel ones) 2. reboot 3. set volume 4. enjoy music This has also worked with my EPIA CL10000 which has a Via AC97 sound controller.
