For starters, make sure that the OSS emu10k1 module is no longer loaded, and then make sure that the ALSA snd-emu10k1 module IS loaded. If you still have trouble after that, you might also want to take a look at the permissions of /dev/dsp. The audio group should have rw permissions to it, and you should be part of the audio group. p.s. Top-quoting (i.e. placing your reply at the top of a message, rather than the bottom) is generally considered a Bad Thing(tm). Youre reply should come after a properly snipped quote of the original message to imply what it is you are replying to. -- Alex Malinovich Support Free Software, delete your Windows partition TODAY!
