Before upgrading to kernel 2.2.0, I had sound working perfectly. I
have a SoundBlaster AWE 32 plug'n'play (ISA). With my 2.0.x kernels,
I used isapnp, then loaded sound as a module (automatically by
kerneld).
With the 2.2.0 kernel, I've tried all of the following:
* kernel 2.2.0 plug'n'play support (and no isapnp), both with
sound as a module and built-in to the kernel
* disable kernel 2.2 p'n'p support, and tried to use isapnp, both
with sound as a module and built-in to the kernel.
I get the following error when I try to use "play" (i.e. "sox") to
play a .wav file:
sox: Can't open output file '/dev/dsp': Operation not supported by device
When I try to play an .mp3 file with mpg123, I get the following
error:
Can't open /dev/dsp!
These errors occur both as root, and as a normal user.
My only guess is that I have sound somehow configured incorrectly, but
it's beyond me...
Here's the output of at "cat /dev/sndstat," which should obviously
have more to it...
