Description of problem: This one is a weird one. So, I got this fully supported SiS-based AMD Duron 1.3 GHz PC and it works fine. Its sound card is an SiS-based onboard sound card and it is fully supported by ALSA. I have installed Linare, Xandros, Mandrake 10 and Fedora on this machine, and all support the sound card. The problem with Fedora2-test2 though, is that Gnome's volume manager shows TWO entries for this sound card, while it is only one card. I understand that one is for OSS and the other one is for Alsa, however, if you check out my screenshot here: http://www.osnews.com/img/6443/audio.png you will see that the SiS entry (the one marked as "Alsa Mixer") has DUPLICATE controls. I get two Line-in controls, I get two CD, two Mic, two Phone, two Video etc etc From what I remember, Mandrake's Gnome didn't exhibit this problem (also with kernel 2.6.x but with gnome 2.4.2). So, this is quite annoying having useless duplicate entries of the controls, plus having that C-Media entry for OSS, while the system- config-soundcard utility (also in the screenshot) only finds (correctly) a single sound card, the SiS one. In the screenshot I have also included the "lspci -v" information for the sound card, just in case you need its specs. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Every Time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Launch gnome's volume control. 2. 3. Actual results: Gnome's volume control finds two different sound cards (while there is only one) but even worse, the correct sound card's controls are all duplicated. Expected results: To not have duplicated entries in the volume control for my Alsa sound card. Additional info:
Yeah, it's a big problem, we've been talking about how to rewrite it. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 119732 ***
