The problem is that the recordin programs I've used say they cannot open
/dev/dsp, and, indeed, when I ls /dev I find that there is no /dev/dsp/
making the changes mentioned a few posts ago does indeed give me a
/dev/dsp, but then none of the usual audio programs (like xmms and
kaffeine) provide any sound. Would the existence of /dev/dsp set all
the volume controls to zero? And would they mysteriously reset to
their usable values when I undo the changes and reboot without a
/dev/dsp?
There's something I don't understand here.
