Sometime over the last few days I lost all sound on my system. Its
an intel board - audio apps tell me they can't open the sound device,
but when the system boots I hear a pop in the speakers as the drivers
are loaded.

here's the relevant output of lspci -v


00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER
(ICH5/ICH5R) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 02) Subsystem: Intel

Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2
Kernel driver in use: Intel ICH
Kernel modules: snd-intel8x0

Its a Sid system, up to date.
Where should I start looking, as sound used to work with no problems.


Have you tried running 'alsaconf'?

Yes I did - it went through its routine and promised me I'd end up with
a functioning sound system. I didn't. I really don't understand the "
can't open audio device" ( Alsa default) message. There are no error
messages during the boot, except one which says aumix won't touch the
settings because it detects alsa config ( or word to that effect).

I have since discovered aplay will play wav files....
this is the output of aplay -l

**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: ICH5 [Intel ICH5], device 0: Intel ICH [Intel ICH5]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: ICH5 [Intel ICH5], device 4: Intel ICH - IEC958 [Intel ICH5 -
IEC958] Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0


I'm stuck.
