That makes things quicker, thanks.

Ok, I'll undo that change to the delay then.

My bad. The application itself hangs. I press ctrl-c in the shell that I 
launched it from to kill it. In the case of MPlayer. It then pops up the 
error:
MPlayer interrupted by signal 2 in module: ao2_init
My guess is that MPlayer has blocked waiting for alsa to do something.
XMMS just quits without saying anything.

Just tried this. Alsamixer and KMix (which uses OSS) both detect the right 
things and work fine.

Another small, possible buglet I have found.
Despite following the website and doing...
./configure --with-cards=intel8x0 --with-sequencer=yes
...to configure the thing, the following additional modules get installed:
/lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/sound/isa/gus/snd-gus-synth.o
/lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/sound/isa/sb/snd-emu8000-synth.o
/lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/sound/pci/emu10k1/snd-emu10k1-synth.o
/lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/sound/pci/trident/snd-trident-synth.o
/lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/sound/synth/emux/snd-emux-synth.o

There may be others but these ones complain of unresolved symbols when I run 
update-modules. I have tried just deleting them, which gets rid of that error 
but makes no difference to this problem.
