Hi all. THe following pertains to debian testing.
I have an intel i810 chip in my laptop. If I run xinit, and do a cat /proc/modules, it looks like i810_audio is unused, and a subsequent run of xmms produces beautiful sounding mp3s. If I do a /etc/init.d/kdm start and run a kde session, it looks like the driver is used once, and a subsequent run of xmms produces unintelligible garble. There is nothing obvious running which is using the driver (arts) and the sound is disabled in kde. Similar situation for gnome, but I am less sure of how the sound daemon behaves in gnome. This only started happening after an upgrade to testing. THanks for any pointers. I'd be happy to provide more info. --Craig
