I followed the instructions in this page percisely:
thanks for the tip about running snddevices .. it did help (although
the instructions clearly specify that it relevant only for older
versions of the driver), and now alsamixer works, but still no sound
:(
I observed the following:
After I reboot, alsamixer looks like it was reset, and everything is
muted again. When I log in to KDE I get the error message regarding
the sound server not working (that is the first indication I get that
something is wrong). In the KDE Control Center, under Information ->
Sound, I see the following message:
Installed drivers:
Type 10: ALSA emulation
Card config:
Sound Blaster Live! (rev.10) at 0xb400, irq9
Audio devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG
Synth devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG
In the /var/log/messages I see the following lines:
modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module sound-slot-1
modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module sound-service-1-0
I have no clue where the sound-slot-1 and sound-service-1-0 come from
(is the kernel looking for a second sound card?)
My /etc/modules.conf looks like this:
# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1
post-install sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -L
>/dev/null 2>&1
|| :
pre-remove sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -S
>/dev/null 2>&1 |
| :
# module options should go here
# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
# card #1
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
