Are you sure you installed alsa with the snd-emu10k1x module and NOT the snd-emu10k1 module? With a similar Dell SBLive Value card on a Dimension 8200, I was experiencing the same problems when using module snd-emu10k1. Switching over to the snd-emu10k1x module specified for the OEM Sound Blaster PCI X (Dell OEM) SB0200 card fixed the issue. That's the point I was trying to make. It is a EMU10k1X so it does not work with the emu10k1 module. system-config-sound however is not aware of this issue and tries to load the emu10k1 module which fails. Since the emu10k1x module is not provided with Nahant (with the 2.6.9-1.675_EL kernel), system-config-sound should either list the card as not being supported or Red Hat should include the emu10k1x module; from my personal point of view of course. I've ran into a simular problem, and possibly stumbled onto a clue. using snd-emu10k1 the sound does not come out the "front" channels... but rather the "rear" channels. very odd, but i'd imagion it's not too hard to fix.

It has a driver for emu10k1x and RHEL4&s-c-s may work with it... We didn't upgrade the drivers in RHEL, it's too risky, so closing as WONTFIX. |
