I am running Fedora Core 2 with an on-board Via 8233 sound chip. I can
get OSS to run correctly (not Alsa's OSS emulation, but actual OSS).
However Alsa will not play sound through any program on my system (XMMS,
Xine, Mozilla, Gnome error messages, etc.).
When I try to play sounds with Alsa, I receive errors about not being able
to open /dev/dsp. This device exists, I have removed and mknoded it
several times to make sure (adding correct permissions of course).
The configuration detects my "card" correctly so Alsa is aware that it
exists. I have seen similar problems in news groups but none of the
suggestions that I have tried solves my problem.
Also, I am experiencing these issues even when logged in as root. This
card was running fine under Red Hat 9. I did a fresh install, but did not
overwrite my /home and /other (which is for miscellaneous data) drives.
If it is pertinent, I am running an AMD Athlon 32.
