A Dell Inspiron 5000e (maestro 2E) produces sound fine when files are
catted to /dev/dsp or esdplay is used.  However, Gnome sound produces no
output.  No errors are seen in X logs, or system logs.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install Wolverine on Inspiron 5000e
2.start X
3.play sound
	

Actual Results:  no output

Expected Results:  sound from speakers

Comment 1 Elliot Lee 2001-03-15 18:14:24 UTC
Please elaborate on what operations "Play sound" and "Gnome sound" involve. Too
vague for me, sorry! :)

Comment 2 J. Alexander Jacocks 2001-03-20 02:34:53 UTC
By Gnome sound, I mean any Gnome applications that use the esd API's.  I.e. the 
Gnome Control Panel's sound tester, for events with sounds related to them.

Comment 3 Elliot Lee 2001-03-21 18:49:53 UTC
Do any other sound apps fail besides the sound-properties control panel?

Comment 4 Elliot Lee 2001-08-26 21:54:50 UTC
Very old bug, can't reproduce, and no reply -> WORKSFORME
