When I run amixer I get: amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such file or directory

And with alsamixer I get: alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory.

I am almost sure I am getting these because my sound card module is loading before my aliases are assigned. I understand that the new kernel module utilities uses modprove.conf. Here is the pertenint contents that I currenlty have:

alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
alias snd-slot-0 snd-intel8x0
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

I think these are okay, because if I do a modprobe snd-card-0, I get this error:
FATAL: Module snd_intel8x0 already in kernel.


Does anyone have any ideas?

You can check the modules are really loaded by doing lsmod. I'd say make sure all the important dev nodes (dsp, mixer etc.) are there and you have write access to them
