I would also like to confim this is happening on my system aswell with a clean FC4 install. The same settings as above, AXP 2100+ on an A7N8X DLX (onboard audio is turned off). Thanks.
Same problem on my system with an Audigy 2 running under fc4 with the same device as listed above. clean fc4 install on a dell 8400.
The same problem here. Clean FC4 install with Audigy 2 ZS. AXP 1700+ on GB GA-7VTXE+. The onboard sound is turned off.
Here you can find a workaround http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?p=280406#post280406 In short: 1. open gnome mixer, Edit->Preferences 2. Select Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack, IEC958 Optical Raw and Tone 3. Check that Tone and IEC958 is disabled, and enable Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack
Which driver do you use? Works this workaround for you?
(In reply to comment #5) > Which driver do you use? > Works this workaround for you? The module is snd-emu10k1 as system-config-soundcard finds it. But I think that the problem is with the default settings which are set for the volume control (alsamixer). And yes for me it works.
Can you please attach output of amixer when sound doesn't work?
Created attachment 115804 [details] amixer output when sound not working
Created attachment 115805 [details] and with sound working
Here is the diff. [lordross@aurora ~]$ diff amixer-sound.txt amixer-nosound.txt 0a1 > [lordross@aurora ~]$ amixer 180c181 < Mono: Playback [on] --- > Mono: Playback [off] Curiously for me now when cheking and unchecking only the "Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack" option the sound stops and starts.
I am also having this problem... I tried the workaround and it is not working Also to note: I am using the audigy front panel optical out to my amplifier.. I have run slax Live linux and sound output works perfectly there... ... also when I boot up using Fedora Core 4, sometimes (primarily when I boot linux after I've booted windows) It will get to the initializing hardware ... sound step and lock up forcing me to hard reset the computer .. upon hard reset it usually works (is able to pass that step in booting)
was fudging with the gnome-volume-control and got it working however the test sound is extremely low volume

This may help you: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla-old/show_bug.cgi?id=160730 ... adding options to /etc/modprobe.conf
I'm having a simular problem. I have a SoundBlaster Audigy 2. After upgrading from FC3 to FC4, I have sound, but the mic does not work. Sorry, didn't mean to turn this bug into a disussion thread, but it was a simular problem and didn't see the need to open a new bug. By the way, I don't understand the work around. I don't see gnome-mixer as a binary on my system. (nor do I see gnome-sound-recorder anymore neither).
