Description of problem:
Hello! 
 
I have a sound bug\problem. 
 
When installation was completed and in post install mode I hear the 
sound. But after I restarted a PC the sound is gone. I tried many 
ways to fix it but without results. 
 
Look, here is my details: 
 
[root@inquisitor ~]# system-config-soundcard 
Simple mixer control 'PCM',0 
  Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined 
  Playback channels: Mono 
  Mono: Playback [on] 
Playing WAVE '/usr/share/system-config-soundcard/sound-sample.wav' : 
Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Stereo 
Warning: rate is not accurate (requested = 44100Hz, got = 48000Hz) 
         please, try the plug plugin (-Dplug:hw:0,0)

Also I tried to add line to /etc/hotplug/blacklist - if I add it I 
got an error in KDE from sound server - that it's unable to work 
correctly and also in that situation all sound utilities giving me an 
errors that sound card not installed. 
 
I also tryed to play with alsaconf, but no success. And also it's 
interesting to me - the value of PCM can't be changed at all - there is a zero. 
 
Kmix show all great. But again no sound. 
 
I don't know what to do. Tried to install FC3 on other PC but the 
same problem. 

Please help me. 
 
Thanks

Hello! 
 
Any updates on this bug? 
 
Very need a sound... 
 
Thanks 

Comment 2 Dmitry Yeskin 2004-12-23 12:36:20 UTC
Hey, can somebody answer me? Do I need to remove FC3 and install 
other system to hear a sound? What I need to do? 
 
I am sure it's simple if sound was there in post install mode. I am 
sure I even don't need to recompile a kernel. But can somebody tell 
me what to do exactly? 
 
Thanks. 

Comment 3 Dave Jones 2005-07-15 19:31:30 UTC
An update has been released for Fedora Core 3 (kernel-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3) which
may contain a fix for your problem.   Please update to this new kernel, and
report whether or not it fixes your problem.

If you have updated to Fedora Core 4 since this bug was opened, and the problem
still occurs with the latest updates for that release, please change the version
field of this bug to 'fc4'.

Thank you.

Comment 4 Dave Jones 2005-12-07 07:56:03 UTC
This bug has been mass-closed along with all other bugs that
have been in NEEDINFO state for several months.

Due to the large volume of inactive bugs in bugzilla, this
is the only method we have of cleaning out stale bug reports
where the reporter has disappeared.

If you can reproduce this bug with current FC3 updates, please
reopen this bug.

If you are not the reporter, you can add a comment requesting
it be reopened, and someone will get to it asap.

If you are not the reporter, but can reproduce this problem against
FC4, please open a new bug.

Thank you.
