Hello Jeroen,

I think the PATH is already setup correctly. As root:

# echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
# alsamixer 
cannot open mixer: File o directory non esistente

Alsa modules are not loaded, I think, since:

# cat /proc/asound/cards 
--- no soundcards ---
# cat /proc/asound/devices 
 33:        : timer
# cat /proc/asound/pcm 
# 

What is in these files in a working system?

Which modules are loaded? These are mine:

# lsmod | fgrep snd | sort
snd                    57428  5 snd_aoa_i2sbus,snd_timer,snd_aoa,snd_pcm,snd_aoa_codec_tas
snd_aoa                13256  1 snd_aoa_codec_tas
snd_aoa_codec_tas       9805  0
snd_aoa_i2sbus         18268  0
snd_aoa_soundbus        3685  1 snd_aoa_i2sbus
snd_pcm                78991  1 snd_aoa_i2sbus
snd_timer              19655  1 snd_pcm
soundcore               5242  1 snd

Bye,
