I had a fun evening last.  I received SuSE 9.0 yesterday (9.2 came two days 
ago).  I installed 9.2 on my laptop and have it essentially running fine now 
but no sound.  I can get sound working for a single session but that's it.

This is on an IBM Thinkpad with an esssolo1 sound device.  It worked fine in 
9.1 (and 9.1, and previous).  The problem I am having is coincident and 
isolated to 9.2, both the default 2.4.22-10mdk kernel and the 
2.4.22-21.tmb.1mdkcustom (which I built yesterday).  

My card is properly identified and the correct module is loaded.  My mixer 
settings are correct, not zeroed out.  All I get is white noise (if my volume 
is set high enough) from the speakers.  There are no error messages that I 
can find associated with sound and the kde soundserver setup in the Control 
Center doesn' t produce any useful information.  The ONLY way I have found to 
get sound working (in any current session) is to killall artsd, login as 
superuser and run alsaconf.  After that, I restart artsd (as user) and viola, 
sound works fine.  If I then make any changes in the control center (like set 
it to autodetect instead of alsa, or vice versa) and restart the soundserver, 
sound is lost again.  If I have sound working and then logout and login 
again, sound is lost.  

I have updated kde, have a new kernel, have run MandrakeUpdate and installed 
all the fixes.  No good.  No sound.  Any ideas on getting this fixed once and 
for all?  Anyone else run into this situation?
