I called it the debian sarge sound altzheimers problem because it seemed to keep forgetting it's settings all the time :-(. I never really got any help from forums or Chat but sorta stumbled on this little thing that seemed to solve my problem. What helped was going into BIOS and disabling AC97 sound. MB is a gigabyte GA7DX ... Also interesting note, I learned alsa starts up with the sound muted by default. You have to either use alsamix or whatever you want to 'unmute' it. I know this may not be much help but at least you know you're not alone with this problem.. <g> -- Cheers: Mike .. Now, a little humor compliments of Linux Fortune...
