Description John Chendra 2006-02-22 16:33:54 UTC 
Description of problem:
My PCI Soundcard, Creative Soundblaster is not functional, altough it's
recognized by the kernel (available for configuration, and in kernel module)
My on-board sound (Intel ICH5) is on the other hand configurable and usable.
This problem occured since I upgrade to kernel-2.6.15-1.1831_FC4 and
kernel-smp-2.6.15-1.1831_FC4, and alsa-lib-1.0.10-3.FC4 (don't know which, I
have tried to downgrade the alsa-lib and kernel, but the result is the same)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open up the soundcard detection
2. click on the play test sound
3. there's no sound output
  
Actual results:
Error notice

Expected results:
The sound played to my headphone/speaker

Additional info:
I've tried using Knoppix, Suse, Mandriva, ubuntu (install them on other
harddrive), there's no problem like this. I'm having the same problem with FC5
Test 2. I'm not really sure this is alsa-lib's problem/bug, but I don't know
which component is really causing this problem. I'm attaching the log file of
the error message. The error message send me here.. I'm sorry for my bad
english. Thank You

It's a problem in driver, see:

Comment 4 Dave Jones 2006-02-27 05:12:29 UTC 
this is fixed in the kernel update in progress at
http://people.redhat.com/davej/kernels/Fedora/FC-4/  which I hope to be pushing
live later this week.
