Description of problem: When nasd service is enabled, I do not hear any sound at all (e.g. no gnome system sounds). Workaround: 1. start system-config-soundcard 2. change volume using the slider 3. click "apply" Now all sounds are ok. After a reboot: again no sound. If I disable nasd service using "chkconfig nasd off", the sounds are ok even after reboot.

The nasd service? I've never heard about it. Don't you think nscd?
Yes, the "nasd" service: it's from # ls -l /etc/init.d/nasd -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1088 13. Jul 11:59 /etc/init.d/nasd # rpm -q --whatprovides /etc/init.d/nasd nas-1.8-10.fc6 # apropos nasd nasd (1x) - Network Audio System server nasd.conf [nasd] (5x) - Configuration file for NAS servers
okay, but this package is from extras. reassigning....
nasd is needed for sound output of Qt4. On my systems I have no problems. I have the follow cards: SB Live, SB Audidy2, VIA and one with an Yamha YMF-744B Chip. And all run without problems. So I think it is not an problem at the nasd. But to check it, some other with this type of sound chip must test it and report his/her results.
