    I just finished compiling a 2.6.12.4 kernel to support the sound card in my Dell Optiplex GX270; however, when I try to play audio via Music Player, I keep getting a "OSS device "/dev/dsp" is already in use by another program" error. I have verified that there are no other programs running at the time, so what else would be using the device?
     
    TIA,
    Jon
