Do you use the digital output?
I don't know, just i plug the Speakers to the line and doesn't work. recently i have do it more tests and try to fix the problem but, the only thing that i can do is making the card "sound" but with no volume. the Mayor problem is the alsa that can't use the sound and when i try alsamixer tellme this alsamixer: function snd_mixer_load failed: Invalid argument and the PCM IS configured (i think so) lsmod |grep snd snd_rtctimer 6625 0 snd_usb_audio 74305 0 snd_usb_lib 16961 1 snd_usb_audio snd_rawmidi 21185 1 snd_usb_lib snd_hwdep 10309 1 snd_usb_audio snd_hda_intel 257629 5 snd_seq_dummy 6725 0 snd_seq_oss 29889 0 snd_seq_midi_event 9665 1 snd_seq_oss snd_seq 44721 5 snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi_event snd_seq_device 9933 4 snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq snd_pcm_oss 38337 0 snd_mixer_oss 16577 2 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 64069 4 snd_usb_audio,snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer 20421 4 snd_rtctimer,snd_seq,snd_pcm snd 43205 17 snd_usb_audio,snd_rawmidi,snd_hwdep,snd_hda_intel,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_seq_device,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer soundcore 9505 2 snd snd_page_alloc 11209 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm

Mr. Martin Stransky: I did that and nothing!, you need to see any other file or you need to execute another command i will show you. this is the last thing i need to show us lspci |grep Audio 00:05.0 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP61 High Definition Audio (rev a2) and i no have more cards on my hand to play !
Did the sound work before the kernel update?
Yes sir! it work's very well with the Fedora(2.6.20-2931.fc7xen) one thing i ask you, if is right is the problem. It seems to be the snd-hda-codec.ko (file was not in the folder in the new version of kernel but in the lsmod i can't see it the snd-hda-conf (and i try every modprobe.conf (with this same problem in many foro's) Sall be included thee codec for this card the kernel?

I have no idea. But I'm moving this bug to kernel.
(In reply to comment #3) > alsamixer: function snd_mixer_load failed: Invalid argument > Try deleting the file /etc/alsa/asound.state while running the new kernel and then restarting the system.
Ehmmmm. I did that and doesn't work, and for try one more time i FORMART and re-install the fedora core 7, the sound card is work fine with the Fedora(2.6.20-2931.fc7xen) BUT i try (for certify what is the problem) i install the nvidia driver with yum and becouse the dependencies has update the kernel with this 2.6.23.15-80.fc7 and reboot, select the new kernel AND BUG! the sound card doesn't work, (delete again the file) , reboot, and nothing, I think "was the nvidia video card driver is ocasionating this bug?, but i can't get it work the sound and the video at the same time, i fell frustrating right now, and for versions of "enterprise made in software" i can't migrate to fedora 8 to try!. Come on guys you can do it!!
Try removing the file /etc/alsa/asound.state ALSA is not using the -F parameter when restoring state, so when controls move around the config doesn't get restored.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 7 is nearing the end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 7. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '7'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 7's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 7 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. If possible, it is recommended that you try the newest available Fedora distribution to see if your bug still exists. Please read the Release Notes for the newest Fedora distribution to make sure it will meet your needs: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
I have a very similar problem with Fedora 9. I have an NVIDIA MCP61 sound device, but *some* sounds come out. I get the ping from xterm, the sound when logging in and out, but none of the audio applications work. Flash on Netscape produces no sound, the default audio/video player with Gnome doesn't produce any sound.
Fedora 7 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on June 13, 2008. Fedora 7 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
============================================ -> FINALLY I HAVE SOLVED THE PROBLEM -< ============================================ in THE ONLY THING THAT I HAVE DONE IS 1) cd /lib/modules/2.6.23.17-88.fc7/kernel/sound/pci 2) mv hda /root 3) reboot the system will inform an error of a driver... 4) config the file (i was create the file) /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base with this line options snd-hda-intel model=3stack-6ch-dig 5) config the /etc/modprobe.conf with theese lines alias eth1 8139too options snd cards_limit=8 alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel options snd-hda-intel index=0 alias snd-card-7 snd-usb-audio options snd-usb-audio index=7 ~ and 6) REBOOT finally an nVidia Corporation MCP61 PCI Express bridge WORK OK IN FEDORA 7 Mother board: ASUS M2N-MX GREETINGS!!! FOLKS!! the system would inform you an error,
miss a step THE PROCEDURE WILL BE THIS ========================== THE ONLY THING THAT I HAVE DONE IS 1) cd /lib/modules/2.6.23.17-88.fc7/kernel/sound/pci 2) mv hda /root 3) reboot the system will inform an error of a driver... 4) config the file (i was create the file) /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base with this line options snd-hda-intel model=3stack-6ch-dig 5) config the /etc/modprobe.conf with theese lines alias eth1 8139too options snd cards_limit=8 alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel options snd-hda-intel index=0 alias snd-card-7 snd-usb-audio options snd-usb-audio index=7 ~ 6) mv /root/hda /lib/modules/2.6.23.17-88.fc7/kernel/sound/pci 7) REBOOT in general (remove the driver, reboot, config an paste again the driver, and reboot AND WORKS FINE!!)
Cool. What does the trick? The module parameter model=3stack-6ch-dig ? I don't understand what the steps 1/2 and 6/7 can help...
