    Good Day,

    Since install KDE 3.2 my SLP 9.0 i386 AMD Athlon has been spitting constant
    hissing noises. My sound cards is an Ensoniq AudioPCI ES1371. Any
    combination of kmixer modifications do not disable the hissingf. If I play a
    video with sound, the sound is fine until the video is over and then hissing.
    I have tried configuring ALSA 0.9 with alsactl and kcontrol->Sound->Sound
    System.

    When sounds in enabled during boot (via I believe /etc/init.d/alsasound) the
    hissing starts before KDM comes up. If I issue a:

          /etc/init.d/alsasound stop

    as root, the kicker dies and so does my xterm. This all started with the
    install of KDE 3.2. I have changed back from ALSA to OSS.

    Is anyone else experiencing this behavior? Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Best Regards.
