I have continued to research this bug. Seems like many ppl have this issue with FC3. Numerous soundcards, numerous Mother Boards. Alsa quite properly lays this bug on Fedora's doorstep. Hope you get a chance as soon as possible to fix this. Have been forced to use the commercial (meaning money) OSS driver. Thanks! Jerr
