Description of problem:
I run Fedora Core 3 on Gateway Laptop with Intel 82801DB/DBL/DBM sound
chipset. All modules were loaded as listed:

lsmod command gives (shortly for soundcard-related)

but system-config-soundcard doesn't produce any sound, and it gives
error message that auto-detection of sound card does not work.

However, on the command terminal, it says this:
van@localhost ~>system-config-soundcard

My modules.conf file is:
alias usb-controller ehci-hcd
alias usb-controller1 usb-uhci
alias ieee1394-controller ohci1394
alias sound-slot-0 i810_audio
post-install sound-slot-0 /bin/amix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -L
>/dev/null 2>&1 || :
pre-remove sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -S
>/dev/null 2>&1 ||:

#Note: for user under 2.6, changes must also be made to modprobe.conf!
alias eth1 driverloader


I tried CD music too, but there's no sound at all. It seems that all
the modules were already there in their places and everything should
work correctly. I did try to unmute with "aumix", but still no sound
whatsoever.

I did search through the bugzilla but found no similar bug (if it's
actually a bug at all).

I wonder if it has anything to do with the wrong rate, and I don't
know how to change the rate.

Any help is really appreciate!

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have Fedora Core 3 installed (done once)
2. Run system-config-soundcard (everytime)
3. Got no sound, but error message saying that "Automatic detection of
the soundcard did not work. Audio will not be available on the
system..." and the output as shown above.
