i followed the alsa documention to a t about the intel 8x0 module, yet i still get no sound at all. even after unmuteing the master and pcm channels. i have tryed the 0.9.8 and the 1.0.3 versions. and on a side note would alsa allow me to run two programs that accses the sound card at once cause as it stands right now i can only have one program at a time do this otherwise i get a no sound or sound device busy error? |

Can you successfully change the volume or PCM settings by way of the X volume gui(I use the GNOME app)? If so, then alsa is configured correctly.
What is the output of an "lsmod"? |

edit: fixed part one of my sound problem. it thought i was sending audio to a external source so all i had to do is mute my audio out. the second part is that i cannont get more then one sound program to accses the sound device at one time. i would like to have this so i can hear notify beeps from a irc program while i am lisiting to music. |
