I have checked here :- http://people.redhat.com/stransky/alsa/ but that didn't shed any light. I also believe that I am running off the latest alsa drivers ie Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.13. Is that correct?
hm, it looks like a problem in drivers: Intel ICH: probe of 0000:00:04.0 failed with error -12 The latest drivers are 1.0.14rc3, on my page are 1.0.14rc2.
I am up to date from the Fedora site?? How come I need to load extra drivers?? Where do I get them from if not from the Fedora updates??
They are not in fedora updates.
Identical problem started here today after updating from FC5 to FC6. Have sound with WinXP. Problem also started on an FC6 system which went through normal updates today. Something killed all sound. My Default PCM device, STAC92xx Analog disappeared.
Do you have a link where I may get the latest drivers?

When I try to install alsa-driver-1.0.14-58_rc3.fc6.at.i386.rpm , I am told there is a missing dependency for kmdl-1.0.14-58_rc3.fc6.at Please tell me where to get the latter.
I have the same problem :- [root@cjlhpc Desktop]# rpm -Uhv alsa-driver-1.0.14-57_rc2.fc6.at.i386.rpm warning: alsa-driver-1.0.14-57_rc2.fc6.at.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 66534c2b error: Failed dependencies: alsa-kmdl-1.0.14-57_rc2.fc6.at is needed by alsa-driver-1.0.14-57_rc2.fc6.at.i386
I think that I sort of have a work-around for this problem. If after boot I go into the sound detection applet there are, on the sound test main tab, two tabs listed there, nVidia - CK804 AC'97 - snd-intel8x0 and PNPb006 - PNPb006 - mpu401. No amount of sound testing here yields any result. If I then go to the main System tab and hit 'Reload audio drivers' it says that they cannot be reloaded and to re-boot. If, however, I load KDE and try the same procedure, I still have no sound from either device, BUT if I go the the main tab System and hit 'Reload audio drivers' they reload and now I have sound ???
Can you please try to add these lines to your /etc/modprobe.conf? alias snd-card-2 cx88_alsa options cx88_alsa index=2 They should move cx88_alsa to the third position and free a slot for snd-intel8x0.
Ok, my modprobe.conf now looks like this :- alias eth0 skge alias eth1 forcedeth alias scsi_hostadapter sata_sil alias scsi_hostadapter1 sata_nv alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0 alias snd-card-2 cx88_alsa options cx88_alsa index=2 options snd-card-0 index=0 options snd-intel8x0 index=0 remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 0 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0 alias snd-card-1 snd-mpu401 options snd-card-1 index=1 options snd-mpu401 index=1 remove snd-mpu401 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 1 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-mpu401
So does it work fine? (after reboot)
Yes the sound is there but it takes about 5 mins for the desktop to come up???
Hm, this change makes your boot so slow?
