OK, I'm doing the newbie dance.. Can someone help me with my also problem.
Just installed the 2.6.0-mm2 kernel, wow! FAST!. Kewl.
I am upgrading from 2.4.20 and I have lived without sound forever on this box. Acutally, this is my first real go at doing sound at all on a linux box, i've alsways used my dxr3 and mplayer before which is cheating really...
So, anyways.. I think it al works... in that i now have this in dmesg:
ALSA device list:
#0: Dummy 1
#1: Virtual MIDI Card 1
#2: Intel 82801DB-ICH4 at 0xe6000000, irq 10
Soo, my question is, how do I make #2 the only one I use?? Like, trying to test with mplayer -ao alsa9 and I get no errors and NO audio..
The gentoo alsa FAQ @ www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml doesn't mention configuring these other 2 (0 and 1) cards.
I'm sure there's something special I need to do in /etc/modules.a/alsa..
Right now I have this:
------------
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
## alias snd-card-1 snd-ens1371
## alias snd-card-3 snd-ens1371
## OSS/Free portion
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
## alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1
##
# OSS/Free portion - card #1
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
## OSS/Free portion - card #2
## alias sound-service-1-0 snd-mixer-oss
## alias sound-service-1-3 snd-pcm-oss
## alias sound-service-1-12 snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss
# Set this to the correct number of cards.
options snd cards_limit=1
----------
Just had a though, I have alsa compie IN, not as a module.. does this mean there no moduleing required?
Even if there isn't I still have my problem of I can't get audio out of my PC..
Please help

recompile your kernel without "dummy".
make sure your soundcard is compiled in the kernel.
Virtual MIDI card is not a real soundcard, so you cant configure it like a normal soundcard.
