I think you need to do two things:
1. Unmute MORE stuff, "Master" for one
2. modprobe *-oss modules.
I work pretty well when all *these* modules are loaded.
( I have a different sound card )
lsmod
Module Size Used by
snd-pcm-oss 35808 0
snd-mixer-oss 8528 0 [snd-pcm-oss]
snd-seq-midi 3168 0 (unused)
snd-seq-midi-event 2944 0 [snd-seq-midi]
snd-seq 34096 0 [snd-seq-midi snd-seq-midi-event]
snd-card-via686a 6240 0
snd-pcm 47744 0 [snd-pcm-oss snd-card-via686a]
snd-timer 9616 0 [snd-seq snd-pcm]
snd-mpu401-uart 2672 0 [snd-card-via686a]
snd-rawmidi 12000 0 [snd-seq-midi snd-mpu401-uart]
snd-seq-device 3760 0 [snd-seq-midi snd-seq snd-rawmidi]
snd-ac97-codec 22864 0 [snd-card-via686a]
snd 23648 0 [snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss
snd-seq-midi snd-seq-midi-event snd-seq snd-card-via686a snd-pcm
snd-timer snd-mpu401-uart snd-rawmidi snd-seq-device snd-ac97-codec]
soundcore 3568 5 [snd]
MAYBE all you need to do is UNMUTE more.
The OSS stuff makes a LOT more of my other programs work.
aumix, for example.
