More or less same problem. Clean install of FC2T3 (Dunno about test 2) system-config-soundcard works and tests playing sound _correctly_. You hear the sound. Rhythmbox says: Could not pause playback Alsa device "default" is already in use by another program. /usr/bin/play file.ogg works, even under X/GNOME. gstreamer-properties fails.
Does this behave better in the final release? (A fix went into modutils for this.)
I've been running FC2 for one week now. Seems sound works perfectly fine in the final release.
After upgrade from FC1 to FC2 final release, sound does not work at all.
Can you post your config files (/etc/modprobe.conf*)?
Bug 122557, 122953, bug 123389, bug 123586, bug 123631, and bug 124497 all seem to be describing the same problem. Some of these are already assigned. Bug 123631 seems to be the best-documented, so I am putting additional diagnostic info there. Someone with the right permissions should probably mark the others as duplicates as appropriate.
